About me
I'm an outdoors-loving gal and spend my free time mountain biking, hiking, surfing and snowboarding. I'm also a bookworm and my very favorite thing to do is to curl up with a good book and a hot cup of tea. I've got a huge passion for dogs...one day my partner and I hope to do rescue work for large breeds. We currently have one male American Bulldog/Neapolitan Mastif (his name is Makai, which means "towards the ocean") and one female Staffordshire Bull Terrier (her name is Abby). I love cooking and baking, and wish I had more time to do it...these days I find myself looking for simple, easy to make recipes...although every now and then I tackle something more time consuming, usually to share with family or friends. I get excited about grocery shopping, and could spend hours and thousands walking the aisles. I'm trying to cut soy out of my diet, because I've used way too much of it to compensate for being a vegetarian (soy is not the only or best choice). I have fantasies about having a dream kitchen one day, and having hours to spend preparing food for my loved ones (including me!)...but for now, it's quick dinners and rushed breakfasts....which I try to make as healthy as possible :)
