About me
I love to cook and bake almost anything. I am espcially interested in International baking and ethnic recipes of any sort. . I try not to use mixes of any sort if I can help it; but on some rare occasions I do. I cook and bake almost anything from vegan, vegetarian, sugar free, large quantity, European , oriental and traditional American cooking and espcially enjoy Southern tea parlor cooking and baking I taught cooking lessons, did private catering, had my own dessert business years ago, had my own culinary web pages for years- retired it and now have a web page just devoted to my dogs ! My Culinary Motto: Easy, Elegant and Differently Delicious !. Simplicty plus style. I love the finishing touches to table setting such as napking folding, flower arrangement and so on. I collect cookbooks and kitchen gadgets as well as carnival glassware and all sorts of butterfly dishes. I love gardening and growing my own herbs. Flowers I love , are the iris, roses, peonies, and lilacs . I am companion to 2 Papillon dogs ( Cosmo and Midge ), have a loving husband and 2 grown wonderful daughters. And oh, I am also an RN by profession! I love to bake, cook and heal! And if you ever have a question, about anything I cook or bake, just ask, I would be more than happy to share Enjoy my recipes. Ratings are always nice but the sharing is the main thing. I realize recipe searches are never ending as there is never such a thing as the perfect recipe for anybody!! That's why we are all here! I also will never post a low rating for any recipe. What's the purpose? I can easily judge a recipe without trying it. Life is short, food is such fun!1 Bon Apetit!!
