about me

Born and raised in the U.S., I currently live in Mexico with my wonderful husband and our baby boy.

We are currently raising pigs, horses, roosters, chickens, songbirds, six cats (Tigre, Leona, Squirrel, Mango, Stripe and Mouse), and our lovable German Shepherd Dog, Luna.

Favorite Foods:

I love dessert! I'm also a big fan of the classic Mexican foods - chilies rellenos, enchiladas, chilaquiles and arroz con leche. I'm famous here for my baked goods (breads, pies, cakes) as many a Señora has told me they avoid their ovens at all costs. I do enjoy what the bakeries/sweets shops here have to offer, but I frequently miss the homemade American-style treats I grew up with (i.e. chocolate chip cookies, pumpkin pie, ice cream sandwiches, doughnuts!).

I also love simple recipes that don't use a lot of canned or pre-made products and that don't require a lot of kitchen gadgets. I would love to have a bread maker, an ice cream maker and a juicer, but while I'm living here I'm going to have to stick to the basics.

The things that come to mind as dislikes in the food department are quiche - which also carries over to any dish that has egg as a main taste. Also, aside from the occasional shrimp, I avoid seafood. My husband, on the other hand, lists seafood at the top of his favorites' list – his favorite dish being a shrimp, squid and oyster cocktail.
