To me, cooking comes so easily. And I am grateful for this everyday. I am constantly perusing this website for new and exciting recipes. When in the kitchen, I am in bliss. Some other things I enjoy when I don't have a knife or pan in hand... -riding my cruiser on the beach -ordering new books on Amazon.com or shopping in Barnes and Noble -nature photography (taking pictures and editing) -crafting (flower hair pieces) -random weekend adventures -exploring my new home, California (this state has so much to offer!) pumpkin cookies. chicken soup. chili lime chicken. arepas. egg white omelettes. chicken tacos with homemade tortillas. individual chicken pot pies. whole wheat pasta dishes. [im clearly a fan of the chicken haha] spaghetti and meatballs on Christmas day. Finally mastered Arepas. ::gasp:: no such thing! Everything is a learning experience :]
