I'm a mom of two beautiful kids, whom I'm starting to homeschool this year. I love hiking, fishing, hunting and have recently found that i LOVE baking - cooking I do because I enjoy eating and it seems I make better food than restaurants around town.
Chili. I love making it, the way it simmers all day and just gets better. I threw together a sweet chili and my kids love it - and so does everyone else :) I love baking - the rising of bread is still magic to me.

Nana's Moist Dark Chocolate CakeEasy to make, rich, moist and fabulous! I wish I had made the vanilla frosting though (my son wanted chocolate, and for me that was too much chocolate, but for him it was just enough!)

Chocolate FrostingWhen I followed the directions, I ended up with too dry a mixture. I had to add a few tablespoons of milk to thin it out enough to spread. It tastes yummy, though :)

Drop BiscuitsI used these biscuits as a topping for my chicken pot pie - It worked very well.

Roasted Brussels SproutsI think I should have cut them all in half, or possibly quarters.... Cooked for 40 minutes and the outer leaves were browning, but some were still not tender when I took them out.... I did add mushrooms, and those were yummy :)

Fluffy PancakesAdded bananas and bittersweet chocolate chips - Amazing!

Salmon PattiesI made these in the oven and they were AWESOME!!! my kids raved and wanted to know when I was making them again

Basic Pancake Mix RecipeI'm used to mixing wet ingredients first and then combining with the dry. I didn't like mixing in the milk first and then the eggs - I had to over mix the batter to get the eggs mixed in. They tasted okay enough - but I agree, this is just a basic recipe. I think I will keep looking for my go-to pancake recipe

Warm Apple PieI don't like apple pie - but every one in my family does. They asked for a pie for Thanksgiving, and this one did not disappoint! This recipe makes me LOVE apple pie!!! Best crust I've made from scratch!

PierogiesWe had a little problem with too much milk - but my 'helper' was 6 years old, so that could have had something to do with it... :)

Chicken - StroganoffIt's on the stove now - I didn't have any paprika, so I substituted with some sage and thyme - probably will be sweeter, but we'll see. I started cooking the chicken before I realized what I thought was paprika in Grandma's kitchen was really Cayenne pepper.... and i wasn't going to substitute that!

Hamburger CasseroleI really wish there was an estimated cook time with this recipe - It's been in the oven for 45 min and I've checked it twice, but the potatoes still aren't cooked through yet...
