Chef #349434 (Mirth is King)

about me

I'm a retired school administrater who was a Director of Purchasing and Logistics for a major school district, in the Cincinnati, Ohio area. I bought all the products for the school lunch's, and boy did I learn alot. I just love to cook. It is such a great way for you to forget what is going on in the world outside your door,and to watch people enjoy what you have cooked.

I love to cook from scratch, and use old reciepes. My oldest cookbook is from the late 1800's. My favorite cookbook is the Everthing cookbook.

I have and aray of reciepes from my grandmothers and my mother.

I learned to cook by watching and listening to my elders. No reciepes we written, and it was a pinch of this and a handful of that. They all cooked with lots of LARD. Sorry, but it does provide a different taste. Homemade cake comes out like wedding cake. You know the difference if you have ever cooked with lard.

Someday I may post my reciepes, but I'm just not ready for that at this time.

Favorite Foods:

German Food, Sea Food, and speciality Pork dishes. I also love to make sauces and homemade bread
