About me: I became a foodie about 10 years ago. I've always loved to cook & bake & have developed a taste for fine, good, fresh, healthy food. In my spare time - I cook & bake as many things from scratch that I can using fresh vegetables, fruits, grains, poultry & fish. (some meat). I have my "BUCKET LIST" of food I always wanted to make and now I'm working through that list. I often make fresh pasta, sauce, breads, bagels, pretzels, donuts and recently made homemade sausages for the first time. When I'm not cooking, I'm reading cook books or searching the internet for great recipes. My favorite website is www.Cooks Illustrated.com & www.marthastewart.com - she has some great recipes and the site is well illustrated.

Favorite cookbook: The Bread Baker's Apprentice

Favorite recipe: Bagels
