I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in western massachusetts. I have a love for all things creative, and this includes cooking and baking. Not afraid of a mishap or two, I love to try new recipes or twists on old faithfuls! Cook: Shrimp and Seafood would be my favorite tastes, however italian is a close second I also love to try international meals, to keep things interesting and my family's palattes happy My family heritage is German, Italian, Irish and American Indian. We have created a style uniquely our own;) I am not so sure I would say I have had a triumphant experience in the kitchen, but then again maybe they all are! Bird poop cookies! They tasted great, but my first coconut maccaroons looked like a windshield parked beneath a tree of birds:)
