I love to cook. When I was younger the main reason I wanted to leave the family home was so I could cook and eat my own food, the way I liked it! I work fairly long hours in an office so am also always looking for great recipes that are easy too. Indian, Thai, homemade sauces, dressings, muffins. I also love using fresh herbs in everything. Christmas. I am not a great baker, but I do love making cookies and food gifts around Christmas time to share with friends and family.
