about me

I am a stay at home mom/ former Dietitian who reads cookbooks and cooks to destress. I have 2 young boys who are extremely active. My older son is allergic to milk and peanuts so I am always on the lookout for recipes he and the rest of the family can enjoy.
I collect cookbooks as an addiction and a hobby. I have a wide range from Naked Chef, to bed and breakfast cooking, to Greek, Italian, French, Indian, Japanese and Middle Eastern food. I love trying ethnic recipes and restaurants and then going back to old American standards.
I spend most of my day either in the kitchen or outside running around with the boys. My husband and I are in the process of planning an addition and creating our dream kitchen.

Favorite Foods:

I am most famous for my roasts: roast chicken, beef, pork, turkey, lamb. I love a big family meal with lots of sides.
My grandmother is English so we make a great roast beef with yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, vegetables (not boiled , thank you!) and gravy.
When we go out though, I'm a big ethnic food fan. I love French, Japanese, Greek, Ethiopian, and Indian especially.
I think it's hard to find a really good Italian restaurant that isn't just a cookie cutter of the others. But when I find one, I'm in heaven!
