about me

Thanks in advance if you are making any of my recipes, and I hope that you like them as I do.

I grew up in the US, but I have spent most of the last few years in Europe now live in Germany, with my German husband. Much of the time that I have lived in Europe, I have lived in international student housing so I have lived with and cooked with people from all over world. I have also have had to learn to improvise a bit because it isn't always easy to get the foods I miss from the US here. My husband is a good cook and likes to cook when he has time, but he quite often makes what he knows, mainly German food. So I am the one feeding him strange things. :D

I like Recipezaar because I can easily find recipes for whatever I am in the mood, or whatever I happen to have laying around when I am too lazy to walk to the supermarket. I like trading tips with the people at the Asian and the German/Benelux forums, I lurk there mostly, but post when I have questions or think that I can help.

My reviews are mainly 4 or 5 stars because I won't try anything that I don't think that I will like. 5 stars is it was great, will make again, only very minor changes were made, if any. 4 stars is it was very good, will probably make again, made some changes to adjust to my taste. 3 stars is it was okay, probably won't make again but I didn't really mind eating it. I haven't had anything here that I thought was lower than that, which is good with how picky I am. I'll try most new things if it sounds good, but I am not afraid to say if I don't like it. I quite often make my own recipes out of some of the ones I find here, and don't post recipe reviews if I radically changed it.






Favorite Foods:

I like a bit of everything, but my favourite cuisines are Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, Italian and Middle Eastern. There are only a few things I don't like: coconut (only the meat, I don't mind the milk when it is in something), lima beans, fried chicken or anything else that is too greasy like fried chicken often is, pea soup, and blood sausage. I don't eat much beef because I find it hard to digest. I don't make desserts much because I don't really have a sweet tooth.
