As a recent Immigrant to the U.S. of A., I'm passing my time baking and doing crafts,
I came here from Alberta, Canada in August of 2002. When I lived in Alberta, I spent my afternoons/evenings working the later shift in an Oat and Barley Flour mill owned and operated by ConAgra Foods. My interest in baking peaked while I worked at this mill. Many oatmeal and/or barley inclusive recipes have worked their way into my collection over time. And Quaker oats, are NOTHING compared to ConAgra Oats. Keep an eye out for my baked good recipes, coming soon, and as often as I make them. I come from a german-canadian background, with a little polish, irish, ukranian thrown in... I also took an interest in trying ethnic dishes, so a few of those recipes are lying around too.
In my spare time I do crafts as well, basically including balloon-twisting, face-painting, tatted lace making, parchment card making, sewing, and scrapbooking.
My hubby builds computers, so due to our abundance of the machines, I also spend time surfing the net, and playing computer games.
Anything else you want to know? Ask
I looove baking... My favorite food is probably Italian-type food. I love Focaccia with aioli(spelling?) dip.
Recipe I'm famous for in our house is Surprise Carrot Cake.
My favorite resturant in Alberta, Canada is Sorrentino's, and my favorite resturant in Athens, Georgia is Gatreau's Cajun Cafe.
