about me

I live in The Woodlands, Tx. and have always loved to cook. I collect cookbooks and love to try new recipes.I play tennis for fun and my DH and myself are photography nuts-landscape and nature mostly, tho I enjoy taking photos of the people and animals we've encountered on our trips!The leopard picture is one I "shot" in South Africa! My DH is retired and I have three grown sons and two grown step-sons. Oh- and three indoor cats who have trained us very well! I have issues of Bon Apatit that go back into the 70's, so my latest project has been to go through them and post the recipes that I've tried and the ones that I still want to try. That will be keeping me busy for quite a while, but at least I'll be cleaning out some of the "clutter" that I've accumulated over the years!

Favorite Foods:

My favorite things to cook and eat are Italian,Mediterrean,and Asian foods, tho I will try almost anything! The best Chinese food I have ever had was on a photography trip to southwestern China last spring and I would love to find some similar spicy recipes! I'm usually asked to bring a dessert whenever we gather with friends-that's the one thing I never try to cut calories in!
