Gina from TX

about me

I dwell in land of the "Alamo." Here in TX one of my favorite places is Riverwalk... an array of shops, lodging & restaurants along the river. It's so pretty and serene and I highly recommend it as a travel destination just to see it.

I love Tex-Mex food of course, but cornbread, fritters, and just about anything BBQ are my true loves.

I'm 40 years old. We have one curiously entertaining cat - she's a Maine Coon. My husband & I are hopefully going to be starting a family soon now that our careers and homelives are stable. I hope we can.

I love this site. I'm not much for posting recipes as most of the things I make are already on here in some format, but I am here to look up & try new recipes that others enjoy. I have a few favorite chefs that I make & try a lot of their things. I just love the variety on this site! So many people are very helpful too.

Thanks to all who post the great recipes that I recreate in my own kitchen for me & DH.



*** June 2008 UPDATE ***

1. BlondieItaliana and made her Very Easy Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies (Uses Cookie Mix)
