about me

Hi .. The pic is of my beautiful son, born on 2/5/2005. His name is Tariq, meaning Bright Star. As I type this, he is blowing bubbles in his water cup and watching cartoons. He whined to get this water for 15 mins and now he won't drink it, he will only play with it. Sigh..

A few days ago he came up with this song, so sing along to the tune of "Old McDonald" :

Old McTariq
Laq Laq Laq
E I E I OOOOOO

LOL I thought it was the cutest thing

When I'm not running around after my son, or cleaning up the mess he makes wherever he goes, I cook and bake (my husband loves the blueberry muffins I make) and I love trying new recipes ..
I also love to read, and collect sci-fi/fantasy novels .. I have over 500 books and still counting ..

Favorite Foods:

I love baking bread. I don't buy bread from the supermarket unless I don't have time to bake. My family regularly asks me for Di's Olive Cheese bread .. I also love making filled pasties. I make a soft bread dough, roll it out and fill it with a veggie mix, cheese or meat mix.

I'm a picky eater so most of my reviews are based on DH's taste because I don't eat most of what I cook, although I love cooking! I steer away from all fried or otherwise unhealthy foods, and don't eat too many sweets.
