Have recently moved from big city life to a very small community of approx. 500 residents. Now produce my own food from my garden. Love this life. Anything gourmet. Love Indian cuisine. All challenges to my skills. I have been creating family cooking tradition for my own family as my mother hated cooking and was not good at it. Now my adult kids are really excited about their own cooking and learning processes. I have had great success with Mexican and Italian meals for guests. Also I make wonderful homemade soups. First dinner party 25 years ago. Too well planned, too many courses. Left guests alone while I was frantic in the kitchen. Never made that mistake again!!
