I live in a small University town with my husband, our giant cat Minion, and our Aussie puppy Roux.
I love trying new things, and going new places. I'll try anything twice. Consequently, this has broadened my view of cooking. If I'm bored, Recipezaar is the first place I go. I like finding new recipes by browsing the "Photos" page.

My longterm cooking goals include:
1) learning to make rice like they do in a Chinese restaurant (I don't like rice myself, but my husband adores it)
2) overcoming my aversion to making homemade bread (seems to me there are too many factors in bread-making that could go terribly awry)
3) relaxing about it; shouldn't cooking be fun?
4) try new stuff!
I really like vegetarian fare, although I like meat too much to abandon it. I ADORE a good sandwich, especially crunchy ones.
I think I'm becoming a food snob. I still don't mind midnight runs to Taco Bell after hitting the bar or Subway if I'm in a hurry, but I think I'm starting to hate Chains in general.
