About me
Hi everyone - My name is Colleen. I am a licensed professional counselor and an adjunct instructor at a local college. My PASSION is cooking (and feeding my husband, myself and our friends). My husband Dale and I are 'winos' and we love to go 'wine mining' (as my husband calls it) and find bargain wines or vintages that seemed long gone from the shelves! I was raised in a home where my mom cooked all the time - I was raised eating artichokes, mushrooms, asparagus, etc... she was a GREAT cook! I've been lucky enough to live overseas for 3 years and I've lived many places in the US. My heart is in the south. Dale & I look forward to moving in a southerly direction - GA, TN, NC would be fabooo! We have a great garden in our yard. We raise lots of Romas while fighting the battle of FUSARIUM WILT (grrrr) and I make roasted tomato sauce to freeze and enjoy throughout the year. Let me tell you - in the middle of winter (or anytime you don't know what to make for dinner), you yank that outta the freezer and you can whip up mostly anything to go with it. :) My husband and I look forward to moving in a southerly direction where we can enjoy the outside YEAR ROUND!

Hi colleen thanks so much for your wonderful comment and rating on my cabernet sauvignon ice .i appreciate you...........mini


Hi Colleen,
So nice to hear from you. I appreciate your comments and feedback on my Eggplant recipe. The reason for skinning the chick peas is to lower the cooking time and enhance the flavor. Without the skins which are very Cellophane like, the chick peas have a much more creamy feel and taste. If you ever try Hummus made with skinned chick peas, you won't believe the difference... Hope you are having a great summer. Thanks again... Jim


Hi, Colleen
Thanks for the comment on the garden. It's my other passion....that and music!
