about me

Hey all! I am a weekend cook....hence the lazy gourmet title. This will be about to change in 2009 as I'm flipping careers and will be taking time off from work! My husband loves this idea because he gets to eat more (that doesn't come out of a box).

I'm also a volunteer junkie. My current organizations are Perverted Justice (protecting kids from cyber creeps on the internet) and the Anti-Cruelty Society.

I've been married to a keeper for almost 9 years. We have our furry children - right now a 15 yr old cat, a prairie dog, two rabbits and two guinea pigs. I do see myself becoming "that weird lady with all the animals" sometime in my senior years!


So enjoy my recipes!

Favorite Foods:

I love food. Italian is probably the best...I also love MEAT - I could never be a vegetarian, I'd die. A good ole steak and potato dinner once in awhile never killed anyone, right? Love pretty much any comfort food that is bad for you, too. I've sealed my fate. ETA: Lately I've been trying to be good and cut a lot of salt and flour out of my diet. I've never been one to salt things and just became aware of how much sodium is in canned ingredients - EEK! Luckily we have enough organic-ish stores around here I can buy low sodium anything. Also, the hotter the better - and the more garlic the better. Dump an bunch of chili powder on a roasted head of garlic and I'm in heaven! (I'm kidding...but only sort of!)

Oddly enough, I love shellfish and sushi (although I've never been tempted to make my own)...but I'm not a big fan of actual cooked fish. I try to get some in my diet, but I'm kind of squeamish about cooking fish. Go figure, I'm weird.

I'm not a huge sweets fan, but the hubby is. And the man can eat and I don't know where it goes...you may relate if you live in a house where you find candy/chips/junk food wrappers randomly left around.

I'll be exploring more of my culinary side in 2009...and using the hubby as a guinea pig!
