About me
I have been cooking since I was 12 and the greatest thing my mom taught me was to look at what I have and make something up without a recipe. I use cookbooks more like reference books to figure out how to make what's in my head. When I do make a recipe it's most likely to have come from Martha Stewart's Everyday Cooking mag. I have five kids with varying tastes (which I usually don't cater to), so whatever I make, it's always a big batch. I rarely use canned or boxed ingredients, and I have been called a food-snob. In a perfect world I would live exclusively on fresh berries, avocados, roast garlic, fine cheese and red wine.
