When I was 10 I discovered the joy of cooking on the back of a Nestle Toll house Chocolate Chip bag. It was the first recipe I ever made. I had a blast and it was a lot of fun to cook something that everyone loved. To this day, baking is one of my favorite things to do, and it shows! (that explains the lack of a picture, hehe)
On the non-cooking front, I lead a fairly normal life. For the past four and half years I have been able to stay home with my DD and be a full time mom (is there any other kind?).
In college I had a wonderful professor, Dr. Mark Woodhouse (his books are fascinating BTW) and I began my study of the paranormal, conspiracy theory, and metaphysics. I can honestly say it changed my life. I earned my degree in Philosophy with a minor in Religion and English.
For those of you who are interested in Astrology, I am a Pisces Dragon. A great book (did I mention that I like to read a lot?) is The New Astrology by Suzanne White. She actually sums up my life very well when she says: "Pisceans born in Dragon years will be touchy and argumentative until they finally stop trying to prove themselves. Then they will become effecient in a chosen profession, stay in a pleasant rut, and cruise around all day dreaming about what to make for dinner."
I love all things bad for me; chocolate, fried foods, casseroles, desserts of just about any kind, you get the idea.
My mom discovered Macrobiotic cooking when I was 7 years old. I was the only kid in the 2nd grade eating tofu bologna sandwiches. I think that I started rebelling then and I refused to eat anything good for me.
When I was pregnant I decided that I needed to eat better, so I discovered the wonders of salads and vegetables. I learned that I hate iceberg lettuce, but I do enjoy a good ceasar salad.
I love to bake and I wish I had more time to do it. I also wish I had someone else to eat what I baked!
