Hi there! I'm a writer by soul, and a cheerful, in-depth experimenter with pretty much everything else. I am also a happy newlywed. My husband and I first started informal pre-dating stuff while cooking odd ingredients into tasty dishes. I've done some form of cooking ever since I was six, with a particular fondness for baking. A few years ago I was diagnosed with various allergies and intolerances, including wheat, apples, bananas, pears, yeast and most things that are fermented. It radically changed my cooking style and thankfully opened up a whole new world of cuisine to try! However, I have plenty of people who still enjoy the treats I used to make (and eat), so I have the best of both worlds; playing around with high-calorie dishes without having to eat them!
Favorite cuisine: Indian and Mexican.
Favorite Savory Food: fresh seafood with drawn butter, spaghetti alla puttanesca, tacos, and curry.
Favorite Sweet: double-chocolate layer cake, smoooothies, sugar free water ice, and homemade frozen yogurt (any flavor).
Cooking Weakness: casseroles that my picky husband will eat (he doesn't often like foods all mixed together).
Famous For: making miracle meals out of leftovers, tricking my no-diet friends into eating healthy goodies, and sticking as many veggies as possible into a meal.
Favorite Restaurant: I'm sold on any authentic Mexican or Indian restaurant, and I appreciate Eat N Park in the US because they are friendly and accommodating to people with food allergies.
