My Cooking Bucket List



I was thinking the other day that there are some dishes I haven't attempted to make yet, and I should write them down.  We all have a few dishes that put the fear of failure in us;  I have quite a few.  Wow.  I didn't realize how many!  Here's my first ever Cooking Bucket List.  My goal is to make each one of these at least once before the end of this year.  It may be inedible (and Bud will let me know), but I'm going to give it my best shot!  These are in no particular order:

1.  Cheese Souffle
2.  Roast Turkey  (I always go to someone else's house for Thanksgiving!)
3.  Beef with Hot Peppers
4.  Gazpacho
5.  Sangria  (white or red, either one is yummy)
6.  Braciola
7.  Home made pizza on the grill
8.  A pie--homemade crust and all
9.  Eggs Benedict with Hollandaise Sauce
10.  Panna Cotta

I think this is enough for now.  I have less than five months to accomplish these dishes.  Wish me luck!  Don't you think I look like Samantha Stevens?!

  1. Hey Sue, make the Gazpacho already, it's totally easy and refreshing. Get good tomatoes though. You'll thank yourself when it's sixty billion degrees outside and you've just come back from a training run to pull a bowl out of the fridge.

  2. Gotcha--I'm thinking this week would be a good time to make it. With a crusty bread, yum!
