Okay — it is quite interesting to have to talk about one"s self — and so hard to be humble:

I was born in Australia. I am one of 9 kids — actually right in the middle which makes me the most interesting and cool as well as the one who has "it all together":

Now that I am retired, I love to cook. No more do I get home around 8.30 at night and think — Oh hell, I have to cook dinner.
I belong to the most amazing family. My Mum — who passed away in July 2008 at the ripe old age of 90 always used to say — "keep the family together" — and we do. It is so easy to pick up the phone and tell my siblings I love them.
I am lucky that a lot of my friends are great cooks, so we often swap recipes. I am exceedingly jealous of those who are 'natural' cooks and don't need a recipe. I am the opposite.
Besides cooking, I like the theatre, music, gardening, trying to paint — another thing that doesn't come naturally — and meeting people.
My DH was born in America and together we have two toy poodles — Elliott & Connery — a cat named NUC (passed away March 2009) — four chickens and a few koy fish.
DH is GRADUALLY taking an interest in my vegetable garden - one can only live in hope:

EVERYTHING — I will ALWAYS try something. BUT I must admit I do hate chokoes — I don't even know if I have spelt it correctly. I do love curries, japanese, italian, greek, australian etc. etc.
