I'm soon to turn the big 5-0. I was born in London (England) and now live in Yorkshire (also in England). I make my living selling clothes on eBay. Its the perfect job for me as it gives me plenty of time for walking my dogs and cooking! Anything spicy. I love things like the hot, spicy and sweet North African tagines and Indian dishes. Though this website I have discovered that there is more to Mexican food than the basic chili I've always made. Definitely Christmas. Christmas in Great Britain is THE big food occasion of the year. I spend weeks planning it and carry it out with military precision. Each family have their own traditions and my (second) husband brought some new ones with him when we got married a few years ago. Apart from my annual Christmas Dinner I think that my biggest triumph was coping with my daughter deciding she was a vegetarian one day when she was 12. She reverted back to eating some meat when she was 17 but we still enjoy some of the wonderful vegetarian dishes I learned to cook during those 5 years. Big cakes. I don't like baking cakes and I think it shows in how they turn out. They always sink in the middle. I'm okay with little ones though - but people prefer my savoury cooking (and so do I!)
