I've lived in New York my entire life and I'm married to my hubby Brian for over 30 years. We have 3 grown children, 1 son in law and one soon to be son in law and 4 small dogs to fill our lives and our home.
In the mundane world I work in purchasing for a pharmaceutical company.
The cooking fun starts once I get home (don't care to do fast foods) coming up with quick easy meals and making more involved recipes on the weekends.
I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes and flavors for my family. I could sit for hours just researching recipes and coming up with ideas.
My other hobbies are decorative painting, making craft items, a bit of sewing, a bit of crocheting and finally taking the time to learn to knit.


Pasta and Italian foods are my absolute favorite foods.
My hubby and I love to try new things and experiment with recipes. We love making some of our own Chinese, Japanese and Mexican foods. We have fun shopping at the Asian market.
Good old fashioned comfort foods are always a favorite at our house too.
My favorite FoodTV Chefs: Ina Garten, Paula Deen, Rachael Ray and Giada top my list but I love most of the shows.
Buon Appetito!
