about me

I live and work in So. Cal. I'm so happy that I found The 'Zaar community because it has done nothing but improve the way I cook and entertain. Thank you everyone!!!!

My little motto......

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, throughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaming.....WOW, What A Ride!!!!"

Favorite Foods:

Anything Chocolate is a favorite.

I love my sweets but I also love other kinds of foods as well. I would like to think that I am adventurous and when I travel to new places I'll try the local cuisine. Realistically, I could get these foods here in my own town but when you are right where peoples' childhood memories are intertwined with their comfort food, that is just what I am looking for. I was in Philly recently and had my fill of Cheese Steak sandwiches, pretzels and Tastykakes (I am a West Coaster so Tastykakes were new to me!!) The southern cooking in Nashville and in Huntsville was out of this world!! Fried Okra, Fried Chicken, Green Beans and the Biscuits!!! Loved the Banana Pudding too!! My family is from Hawaii so Spam Musubi, Portuguese Sausage, Saimin, Loco Moco, any Plate Lunch special, Shave Ice and Guava Juice are just SOME of my favorites.

I am currently on a Sushi kick and I am always looking for a fun place to try.
