Training culinary:2 years culinary school Houston Community College (downtwn branch highly recommend) French pastry and artisan breads. I am immersed in family, spouse and everything homeside. it is now my time having retired, to do all the fun things I couldn't do while working. I believe life is most bountiful when we serve others. I also believe the best cooks are those who cook and bake with a love of making people happy. I especially enjoy sending cookies to our soldiers in Iraq. It is a joy to read their letters and emails of appreciation for a taste of home. I also love sewing, upholstery, gardening,church activities and remodeling take up the time not spent with family. I hope I can be as helpful to the cooks on Recipezaar as they have been helpful to me. When time permits I love to test and review recipes on this site that appeal to me. I am also a believer in power naps.
My favorite dishes are usually the simplist. Breads, soups and salads. Because of training as a pastry chef, I do make a lot of desserts; I prefer those with fruit and of course anything chocolate. The dishes I am most famous for I will eventually post. Many date back 40 years or more and would benefit some of the young bakers starting out. My favorite restaurant? I've seen the dining experience out there get more and more disappointing; I prefer to dine at home. Nuff about me!
