About me

I'm an average cook who is a little intimidated by creativity in the kitchen. However, I'm overcoming that slight phobia (with the help of my passion: wine). I enjoy discovering new foods, restaurants, wine pairings, and ethnic dishes.

My favorites: Middle Eastern and Mediterranean, fusion (California or French), Mexican, and Italian. I also love the popular cooking shows and find myself inspired by Top Chef a good deal of the time.

Cooking Influences

Mama Fisher, who made the basics: a good tuna casserole, breaded fried chicken, sausage bean chowder, mashed sweet potatoes with oatmeal, ya know! Otherwise, I can say I'm a less than average cook who's open to influences from anywhere.
