Live with my husband and two dogs. Cook often for friends and family. The neighbors love that I cook. We eat together often. I will try almost anything once. Not fish or shell fish though. My mom used to cook a lot. I remember Grandma cooked too, but I wasn't around her to learn much. My brother and I both cook like crazy though. Mine is healthier than his but both are delicious. I make a load of rocking side salads and some great new skills on the grill. I was 19 or 20, making a read wine sauce before I new or liked wine. It was more of a vinegar sauce...yuck.
