This was a good recipe. It didn't taste as good on the broccoli as it did the carrots. I didn't have any Parmesan cheese so i used cheddar. Will make again using parmesan. Also It had way too much garlic. next time i will half it. My husband thought it tasted like ranch dressing. I will make this again as written,will half the garlic, then rate again. -
I wanted to have a different taste with carrots, and I did this recipe today. I did not have any broccoli, but the carrots tasted so good. The cheese sauce is fantastic. Thank you for a great recipe. I will be making this again

I work as a professional stagehand for my local union (IATSE Local 26, West Michigan Stagehands), which takes me all over the state and lets me meet all sorts of interesting people. My primary training is in lighting and wardrobe, and I can be found backstage at everything from rock concerts to opera/ballet/symphony/Broadway tour performances to hockey games to corporate meetings and Presidential appearances. In June of 2005, my Local elected me to serve as a delegate to our International convention in mid-July, which was held in Honolulu. In November of 2008, I was elected to my third three-year term as Recording Secretary of my union local. Currently, I am the news poster for www.megatechnews, a computer tech site affiliated with several other tech sites.
My biggest passion is union activism. The more I get involved, the more I want to be involved. I also read like a fiend and enjoy "discovering" local or regional bands at local clubs.
Recently, I started making jewelry again after a more than ten-year hiatus. It started as a project for Christmas presents, but doing it reminded me how much I enjoy it, so I may be resurrecting my business soon. I never duplicate a piece, because the entire point is that I do custom work, and will take orders to suit. The pieces I have done are in a photo album on Facebook located here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=21364&id=1373365950&l=5be410742d
