I'm a grandmother. And a schooled judge for beer competitions. And I'm engaged to a musician. I enjoy the out-of-doors, music, animals, forensic television shows and cooking all day on Sundays. Traditional meals from Ireland are fun to cook, but I'm branching out into other cultures and am excited about all of the different spices and flavors of the world. I'm also an artist who appreciates being taken OUT for unusual dinner experiences after a long day of work! I'll try almost anything unless it's still alive! No insects. I'm really into Ahi Tuna at this time. Getting into simple meal preparations while staying healthy is becoming a fun past time and more prooductive for health and local farm economy issues. Irish and American Southern cooking. Haggis. It turned out very well. My first haggis was so full of liver flavor that no-one but me would eat it and THEN I had to use catsup!
