Welcome....



 
 

Hello, thank you for visiting my web page.  My favorite pastime is cooking.
I really LOVE to cook, it's more like my favorite preoccupation.
The recipes on my pages are collected from many sources.  I have been
cooking and creating recipes since I was about five years old, maybe
younger.  As a kid, I spent many hours in the kitchen watching my Mom and Dad
cook,  I am writing my own cookbook which will contain my original recipes
plus many of my parents original recipes from decades ago.

My dad was a pilot, so I grew up traveling all over the world.
He loved to cook and since he traveled internationally, he was always coming
home with a new recipe idea from a country he visited (we were NOT picky
eaters in my family!).


We lived in Singapore  for a couple of years and  were introduced to some
wonderful food there.  I also lived in Texas and Louisiana, the food in
Louisiana is really awesome. There, my family and I used to catch crabs out of
the bayou, now that's fresh! We ate our fair share of crawfish too!
All except my little pet crawfish, Chloe..... Growing up, I think I tried
to make a pet out of everything!


I lived in California for the last 30 years, but finally made it to Northern Idaho Summer
2008 and I love it!!!!
I'm excited about having 4 seasons, eating elk and venison, and fishing and camping!
I can't WAIT for the snow!

My dog Bart passed away November, 2005, he developed Cushing's disease.
We miss him so much but luckily, he had a long life, 14 years.

  Holly a new pup in this picture, is now 6 years old
(and not quite as thin anymore, she loves my cooking! I try
and keep it healthy for her though) You can see her picture
with Santa on the home page. She's one happy dog here in Idaho!

Here's a picture of Bart & Holly together sleeping.  They got along
great the very first day I brought Holly home. She was definitely
meant to be a part of our little family! I found her up for adoption
at our local pet store and it was Bart's birthday, so I thought I'd
surprise him with a new friend.

My cat Lily, who is 7 now, is also a part of the family, she's a great
little hunter, needless to say, I don't fill my bird feeders anymore!
Wish she would bring me home a pheasant!

I had another great dog a few years ago, Beau but he's gone now. He and
Bart were pals.

Can you tell I love animals?
