A family of cooks, sharing our food adventures and skills. The eaters take it all in. sometimes surprising will their secret skills.#1) I'm a busy professional and mom. I made my first cake from scratch for my father's birthday when I was 10. It's been a great adventure cooking, making and eating ever since. Vegetarian for 30+ years. Exploring the challenges of baking at high altitude. Stretching into vegan techniques. Always ready to learn about new approaches, fresh and healthy ingredients. I appreciate keeping it simple.

Others have commented that their matzo balls do not turn out fluffy, on various recipe posts. Club soda is the key. I have only had one time these were a little dense but still delicious. Otherwise, light and fluffy every time.
