about me

I'm a good ol' prairie girl from Canada with one side of the family being Ukrainian/Slovakian and the other side is German/Russian. In other words, when we cook we take carbs, cover them in more carbs, fry'em and serve it smothered in onions and cream. Let's just say I gain 5 pounds every time I go home to Saskatchewan to visit.
No pro chefs in my family, just grandmas and aunts and cousins and a mom that had me pinching perogies and stuffing strudel before I could form a complete sentence.
The most dreaded / laughed at phrase I say is," So last night, I invented this thing for supper..." - I would probably publish more recipes if I actually remembered everything I put in or had an idea of how much I added!!

Favorite Foods:

Well, needless to say, I ain't picky.
If I was to have a "last supper" it would be my grandma's homemade perogies with onions and her cream dill sauce, a couple of my other grandma's cabbage rolls, and a big thick medium rare baseball steak covered in sauteed onions and mushrooms with my mom's cheese bread. For dessert (hey if it's a last meal, I'm eating whatever the hairy heck I want!), jam jam cookies, chocolate stout cake, and a slice of lemon raspberry cheesecake. YUM. I think my butt got bigger just typing that out.

I'll try anything once and that's why i love most of what I've tried - Indian, thai, vietnamese, italian, ethiopian, greek, etc...

Strangest thing I've ever ate? I worked in Mexico as a tour guide and my friend there fed me fried cockroaches (not as bad as I thought it would be) and brain tacos (waaaaayyy worse than I thought). Back home, I've also tried "prairie oysters" - look it up.
