I am a pretty good home cook and a Food Network junkie. I wish that I could get up the nerve to send an application to the Next Food Network Star. My favorite TV chefs are Bobby Flay and Tyler Florence. I love to have dinner parties and try new things on my family & friends. My last fun party was a "Girls Only" Tamale party in November...I made lunch...my guests brought shredded meats and I taught them how to make the tamales assembly line style...we had a blast! I also find myself being the neighborhood mom periodically...cranking out many cheese crisps, quesadillas, and chicken fingers for my 5-year old and his friends on weekends.
My 5-year old recently became very interested in helping me cook, which makes it much more fun. He loves to crack and mix eggs and help me blending or processing things like....fruit purees for granitas & popsicles, pesto, salad dressing, etc. He especially loves to make popsicles and granitas to share with his friends!
