Being from a Italian Family, my first passion is cooking for my married children, but most of all for my Husband who lives to eat even though I must say if very concouis about his body. My second passion is going to the Casino or on my computer, as you can guess, I love Video Poker. I do spend an average of about 8 hours a night between looking up and trying receipes and playing Video Poker. I must say I am overwhelmed with the fantastic receipes, my thanks to all of you, I think Receipezaar is probably the best receipe center ever. I study cook-books and receipes like it is the Bible. I guess my pet peeve is I can't understand how people don't like to cook if they have the time, and even when you don't, there are so many quick receipes, ONE MUST EAT, so COOK.
