Love to cook from ingredients found on hand in my cupboard and cold case. I've made up the best recipes that way! Using fresh herbs and vegetables from the garden is the best! It makes you feel so... useful. Next to cooking, gardening and reading about food and gardening. We like to RV and this has allowed us to see some great Botanical Gardens and even do some canning in the more 'Productive'places we have visited. Anything Thai! PASTA!!! Refried Beans from scratch. Remembering everyones favorites and making it when they visit. The perfect Watercress Soup When we lived in Colorado, we lived at 9000 ft. I had to learn to cook all over again.
