I enjoy baking. According to the kids that frequent my house I make killer cookies. Lately I have been in a peanutbutter cookie mood. As soon as my dishes are caught up Nickolas and I will be making another batch of pb cookies. The last batch we added white chocolate chip, this time we are going to add butterscotch chips. At Christmas I make around 15-20 pounds of fudge to give away to family and friends. I also make molasses crackle cookies (think ginger snaps) and sugar cookies (from a recipe my mom took off a sugar box 30+ years ago). I may add to those this year (since I am not working) a really good chocolate chip butter cookie and some gingerbread cookies (these are hard as a rock, but great for decorating).
I can do actual cooking pretty good, but I get irritated if it is too time consuming.
What I need to do is get my mom's porcupine ball recipe from her. It is basically meatballs w/rice rolled in and a rich tomato/sour cream sauce. Very tasty.
I almost forgot...I make a killer rum drink. Think an Orange Julius but much better and not so watery, made with pineapple orange juice and blended with a splash of dark rum and a hefty amount of white rum. Verrrrrrrry yummy!!
