<p>I live in the DC area and I love to cook. It is definitely my creative outlet. I like to start with a recipe tweak it to make it fabulous. I don't have a big family to cook for so I throw a lot of parties to try out new recipes, or just invite people over to eat. My friends are very willing guinea pigs. <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
