I love food. There's no other way to say it. I like the tastes, the textures, everything! So most of my interests revolve around food. I like to travel (taste new cuisines), take pictures, scrapbook, read (even cookbooks!) and hang out with friends. Anything chocolate or pasta or my latest trend- Soups My family doesn't have traditions really. I am trying to make new ones. My Wine Cheese Parties!!!! I usually make 15-20 dishes and serve them at the party. 99% of the recipes are ones I have never tried, and amazingly only 1 doesn't work out. I had invited 2 dear friends over for dinner. At the last minute they canceled. Good thing. I was making ravioli from scratch for the first time and it so did NOT work out. hehe. Gotta learn sometime!
