about me

I live in Boise, Idaho (home of the famous Idaho potatoes and Boise State University whose football team plays on the blue smurf turf). My husband and I are retired and travel quite a lot. The last trip we were on was to Halifax, Nova Scotia — beautiful people, food and country!

I love to collect and read cookbooks — way to much from my husbands point of view. I love to watch Rachael Ray, Paula Deen, Barefoot Contessa and Everyday Italian. I have used this site for several months and have loved the recipes and info that comes with them...had to join!

The only peeve that I really have is going on this site and reading reviews on recipes where the person has totally changed the recipe and didn't like the results so therefore giving low ratings.

I am a grandmother to beautiful twin girls and soon to be a little boy. Always thought it would be fun to have two at once...the good Lord knew I wouldn't be able to handle them as easily as my daughter does!

Favorite Foods:

I love all types of food. I suppose my favorite foods are mexican, italian, sushi and everyday comfort food. Of course anything that has potatoes in I love.

My favorite restaurant is Sukura Japanese Steak House, El Giro, Gino's/Olive Garden, and the Gamekeeper here in Boise.
