Chef Boy of Dee's

about me

My spousal unit and I live in Mesa Arizona and love the heck out of it. I was trained in Culinary Arts and Restaurant Management but due to disability am unable to pursue that career. I enjoy cookbooks, cooking websites, cooking magazines (Taste of Home, etc.). I have many cookbook gleaned from the shelves of used book stores and from church bake sales. I have also placed all my recipes on a disc and probably have 1000s myself. My wife is GREATLY disappointed that I wont let her cook. (She says I let her cook...I just won't eat anything she makes!) The picture on my icon is of my Great Zeyda "Wolf" Ginsberg who was known as the "Rabbi of Des Moines". This was a very old picture taken with a camera using flash powder for lighting. The couple in Renaissance garb is me and my DG. This is our wedding picture and the "wench" sitting down is "My Yiddishe Mama"

Favorite Foods:

My wife (aka Darling Girl or DG) and I both enjoy developing new recipes. She brought many family recipes into my life when we wed and I introduced her to many new tastes. My background is Jewish and hers is Baptist, so we have many differences in taste and methods. However we both enjoy a love of garlic. My trademark in everything I cook is either a 'hint of' or a 'blast' of garlic. Hope you enjoy our crazy mixed up life.
