I hope everyone had a GREAT 4th of July weekend. Mine was exhausting, but so worth it.

My life is pretty simple, and boring. I love my dogs, cooking, riding my motorcycle any chance I get...usually to eat. We also have an RV, and I love to pack-up my fur babies and travel all over the country. I must be part gypsy, because I love to be out on the road. I live near the California wine country, so I also enjoy wine tasting...and of course all the great food the Napa Valley has to offer. I have a pretty thankless job that I hope to retire from in about 3 years, at which time I plan to leave California and never turn back. I think I need to be somewhere with good Southern cookin...Tennessee is looking good to me. I'm just counting the days.
My favorite things to cook
I don't really think I have a favorite...I just like to cook. I enjoy trying new things, haven't found anything yet that I wouldn't ever want to do again.
My cooking triumphs
I usually try to keep it simple, but I just mastered the Apple Pie, so I'm happy about that.
My cooking tragedies
I have yet to make the perfect artichoke...but I just found a great recipe for a garlic grilled one, so I hope to change that soon...
