about me

Please rate my recipes if you try them!


Well..about me! I'm married, I have 2 kids (both boys), and I live in Australia.
I have loved cooking for as long as I can remember, and have become completely addicted to browsing through Zaar looking for new recipes!
I have a small animal shelter for rabbits and guinea pigs, and spend a lot of time volunteering in the school cafeteria.
My favourite cookbooks are The Essential Pasta Cookbook, The Central Cookery Book, Flo Bjielkie-Peterson's Country Cookbook, and Greek Cooking (I bought that one in Greece, and it's FANTASTIC). At the minute, we are getting ready to move, which is forcing me to sort through my recipe cabinet. I have been trying out all those recipes that are scribbled on pieces of paper, or torn from magazines, so I can decide ifthey are keepers or not. So far I've found a lot of keepers, and will work at posting them on here.
I'm passionate about a lot of things, mainly my kids, animals, and cooking.
I won't even start on my peeves, we'll be here all night! lol

Favorite Foods:

My favourite cuisine is Greek, particulary moussaka, souvlaki, spanikopita, calamari, etc.
My favourite foods are seafood (particularly Moreton Bay bugs, abalone, squid), peanut butter, and chocolate!
My favourite restaurant is Stalyctites greek restaurant, in Melbourne. Their moussaka is to die for!
The food most people know me for the best would be my curried scallop pies, which I make and sell (along with other things) at the local market once a month. I shall add that recipe to the site a bit later on!
I love cooking new recipes, it's great to stumble onto a winner!
I cook a hot dish for the school canteen whenever I get the time, so I love finding new recipes which are packed with fruit or vegetables, that the kids at school will enjoy. (If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it! lol)
