about me

I'm a greatgrandmother and a cookbook and recipe collector. I like to garden ( mostly herbs ) and am a retired learning disability teacher. Right now I"m teaching half time English as a Second Language.. I don't have a favorite cookbook but I like the Junior League books . I like Marcella Hazan's cookbooks and Mexican cookbooks. I recently got a greenhouse and am rasing unusual vegetables. WE are adding a second greenhouse for more grow your own vegetables.
I live in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley in Virginia on the river. My pet peeves are people with phones glued to their ears and who are unaware of the world around them.

Favorite Foods:

I like stratas for brunch and crepes stuffed with seafood. I need to explore more salad recipes to eat healthier. Our Chicken and rice is a favorite with the family as well as Cheese Enchiladas and Stuffed Cabbage leaves I'm making for my soldier grandson on his leave this weekend. He is now home and father of two.
I love Mexican food but my favorite restaurant in the Valley is Paisano's in the shopping center. He's from Italy and his dishes are great!Recently I added Christina's in Strasburg which serves Mexican food that is really unusual.
