I have always loved cooking, and I have been a chefs apprentice and cooked in country clubs and hotels. But now my cooking is stictly for my family and entertainment. I get so much joy from people enjoying my food. I love to bake...but I also love to do ethnic dishes, cuban, mexican, thai! My mom spent 6 months in England before I was born. I have always loved making toads in a hole. When I was 12 I successfully made a souflee on my first attempt When I was 6 years old my mom let me experiment. I tried to make muffins, and just kept adding ingridents. It got so late that I had to resume my recipe the next day. It took the muffins over 2 hours to cook, and they tasted awful!
