about me

I'm a food junky. I also work very hard to eat a healthy varied diet. Almost every weekend i'll spend several hours experimenting to make a delicious nutritious new handful of recipes. When i'm not cooking i'm looking for the next hiking/camping/ backpacking/kayaking trip to take. I swear I'm solar powered. I have a beautiful dog who accompanies me on nearly all trips. I also have a wonderful husband whome holds down the fort until my return.
My poor hubby does not have a healthy food palate. He provides me plenty of challenge trying to find healthier (but not obviously) savory foods.

Favorite Foods:

I could almost live on peanut butter, carrots, flavored coffees and hot chocolate. Rarely a day passes with out them.
Beyond that...
I Love vegetables and fruits.
soups, stews, salads sandwiches.
Foreign cuisine(prefer the non-americanized versions).
I struggle with carb addicion. I keep my weight in check by allowing limited healthy versions of my carb cravings.
Cant forget the chocolate
