I a 24 year-old law student, I don't have much time to cook but when I do I always enjoy it! I also love traveling and trying new food from different parts of the world, I have spent time in Spain and Italy and am especially fond of all things Mediterranean. Interesting sauces, rich decadent deserts, and anything that involves wine. This Christmas we started making home-made Bailey's with Irish Whiskey, and I tried an Italian pine nut cookie recipe that I am hoping to establish as a tradition. Just pulled off my first Thanksgiving turkey this year that I basted with butter, garlic & herbs, stuffed with the awesome cranberry apple and sausage stuffing recipe I found on this site. It was glorious. They almost always involve rice. I suck at rice. I hate buying anything that comes in a box ready to heat & eat, including any kind of minute rice, but when I attempt to make rice from scratch the texture never comes out right. I also made a disastrous desert once that called for Grand Marnier, and I kind of overdid it with the liquor...
