Coming in from school to Mom's Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies, warm from the oven - melty chocolate with a glass of milk. These cookies, with their cinnamon and nutmeg mean Autumn to me and comfort - yes, I still enjoy them.

Cook the Book: Lidia's Italy

to impress, I cook something fresh from the garden or at least in season...and in such a way as to make that fresh flavor what is important. strawberries with fresh whipped cream or grilled peaches or fresh garden peas with just a touch of butter ... simple foods

my "chicken story" is about my favorite hen "Red." She used to ride on a shoulder as any of my family walked out to the garden or orchards when I was a child. She also would occasionally ride on bicycle handlebars.

Cook the Book: Win a Copy of 'Cook with Jamie'

my Mother & my Father taught me how to cook.
First they taught me how to read and follow a recipe.
Then they taught how to experiment.

Lighting it without having my eyebrows singed off? Another success is the foil pockets I make with salmon and veggies. Yum!

When I figured out how to get my thick burgers cooked inside yet not charred outside...took quite a while.

Grilling Pork Chops with Barbeque sauce has always been my favorite and it takes a while to get everything just right for them to end up being great.

My greatest grilling success story is that I taught my husband how to grill. It has taken time and patience but he really is getting quite good at it. I would love to win this book for the both of us.

My greatest BBQ grilling success was the first time I grilled chicken and it wasn't raw on the inside and burned on the outside. It took me quite awhile to achieve this! Thank you.

while grilling hamburgers we decided to cook up some green beans on the grill, it was wonderful and tasted very good with the smoked flavoring.

I don't make it often, but I am always amazed at how well turkeys turn out on the grill whenever I make them. Just baste it with an herbed oil and use indirect heat. It is awesome.

When we first got married, money was really tight. For my birthday, my husband bought a nice porterhouse and barbecued it to perfection. Well we turned our back for just a second and our dog grabbed the meat and took off with it. Not so funny when it happened but a funny story now!

Everyone loves our chiicken, cooked indirectly, dipped in oil and lemon juice and coated with herbs and spices!

Nothing much better than a turkey cooked long and slow over indirect heat on a good old Weber Grill.

I actually saw Beer Can Chicken on the menu at a restaurant in the D.C. area a few weeks back, so I guess I can count mine as a culinary success. Hard as it may be to get someone to drink about half a can of beer in order to have the rest for cooking, I've always managed to find someone to take care of that part. It's a fun thing to cook when there are kids around, because they find it hilarious to see a chicken sitting on a can of beer. And it's always tender and tasty, so it's one of my favorite barbeque dishes to prepare.

I make the best ribs you've ever had on the grill. I start with a brown sugar rub and then marinate in a savory beer and OJ mixture. I bake them a couple of hours in a sealed bag and then toss them on the grill until slightly charred. JeansandTs@hotmail.com

My husbands greatest success (I don't cook on the grill) is steak with fresh hot peppers roasted beside them from the garden.

One time my friends and I were grilling out and the guys thought us girls couldn't light the grill they teased us and said only a man can grill so we got the charcoal and lit the grill and you should of seen the look on their faces when we gave them a yummy steak dinner. Little did they know we'd been grilling out like twice a week just us.
