I am a professional portrait artist, working primarly in graphite. I work full time as neurodiagnostic technologist. I have a soft spot for animals and have a propensity to bring home any stray dog or cat.
My favorite things to cook
Mexican, Thai, Italian, comfort food like chicken with yellow rice, chili and "dump" soup on a cold winter day
My favorite family cooking traditions
Chicken with yellow rice on Sundays. Roast duck on Christmas Eve and Oyster stew on Christmas Day
My cooking triumphs
Roast Duck cooked just perfect... 2 Christmas's in a row!!!
My cooking tragedies
I accidently dumped too much cinnamon in an oriental rice dish! I thought I could dip enough out. Wrong!!!! YUCK!!!
