about me


alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">

I just finished a music performance major at the University of Toronto, and will be pursuing a Master's degree in the fall. When I'm not studying, practising or rehearsing, I like to expend my creativity in the kitchen. My boyfriend and I love to try new recipes, (and since we both have a sweet tooth!) especially baking. We are always on the hunt for delicious and healthy foods for a student budget.

Favorite Foods:

My father was born in Italy, so Italian food is a must, especially polenta and risotto. I love spicy foods, especially curries of all kinds and backgrounds--Thai, Indian, etc. Given the choice I would eat mostly fish and vegetarian dishes (not that I don't enjoy a good steak from time to time), and I have a serious passion for sushi!I am health-conscious (despite the sweet tooth), and enjoy legumes in almost any form, dark green veggies, and all sorts of fruit.

I am known for my baking and my tendency to share it with others. I inherited many of my grandmother's recipes including her carrot cake, chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, molasses cookies and many more...

I'm not sure if I have one favourite restaurant. I highly recommend the Indian cuisine at Biriyani House at Yonge and Wellesley in Toronto and I used to love Valenti's near the Saddledome in Calgary. (Then it changed hands... ah, the nostalgia.) Similarly to our taste in recipes, my other half and I are always on the look out for a new (and affordable) hot spot!
