about me

I spend time out of the kitchen working (sometimes more than my RDA), riding motorcycles, training for triathlons, and a few other things. There's the occasional burst of yard work and housecleaning, too. Although I seem to be able to come up with a reaction to almost any plant, so I have to almost dress up like a spaceman for gardening. In general, I like to spend as much time outside as possible in the nice weather, so I tend to cook in concentrated sessions for the freezer and fridge. That way, when we come home starving, there's always something tasty and reasonably healthy ready to go with minimal effort.

Right now I have just two recipes posted; I cleaned up my kitchen and tore out the interesting recipes from the magazines I got rid of. As I make them for the first time or refresh my memory, I will be posting them for preservation and with any findings about the results. Fortunately for me, many of the interesting ones have already been posted! Thanks for the effort to all who were more on the ball than I. And, I would like to thank you if you have added a review. I'm too shy about my own 'recipes' to post those at this point, but I still think it's the reviews that make this site especially useful.

Favorite Foods:

Mushrooms and ultradark chocolate come to mind as favorites. Even though we could probably live on spaghetti (with tomato meat sauce, made in big batches for the freezer), I came to the 'Zaar to liven it up a little and improve my meal planning. So far I've learned a lot and tried new things, and dinner is always interesting. Like most people, I can't leave well enough alone with recipes, and almost always modify somehow...usually to add much more garlic.
