I love the idea of living life to the fullest... I'm a jump first, look later type (which has gotten me into some sticky situations). I am honest to a fault... life is to short for lies and betrayal. I love to cook italian and it's what I'm best at. I love simple recipes I can make quickly. I don't really have a taste for gourmet, but I love to try new ethinicities when I cook. My absolute favorite cooking traditon is Sunday afternoon dinner. Growing up in CT, the whole family would meet at my Nana's for dinner after the morning church service. Unfortunatly, the family spread out across the States and now we can't manage to get everyone together for any meal, including holiday's (another favorite tradition). I finally mastered my Nana's pasta sauce... it took around 6 years. too many things to list... I may love to cook, but I tend to experiment a little to much.
