I've lived in Boston (almost) all my life, I'm a proud mom of my two-year-old son, and I'm really loving trying to figure out new ways for getting hubby, myself, and baby to eat new, healthy things together!
My favorite things to cook
Anything Greek or spicy!
My favorite family cooking traditions
We're both first-generation Greek-Americans, so my husband & I both grew up eating a mostly Greek diets.
I love getting together with my family on Sundays - the women cook & clean, and the men eat & watch TV. Maybe old-fashioned, but we don't usually mind!
My cooking triumphs
Hosting a Memorial Day BBQ where my guest list got out of control - 50 in my tiny backyard! But everything came out great, and everything was homemade - and by some miracle, there was just enough food for everyone!
We also just hosted our first Greek Easter for our families, with the whole lamb and all. It was fabulous!
My cooking tragedies
Too numerous to list, but the biggest would be buying a huge piece of wild salmon for $50, and overcooking it so much that it had to be thrown out.
