i'm an avid gardener who has become a dedicated home cook. i love nothing more than growing food and then cooking it in my kitchen. i try to make dinner from scratch atleast five nights a week. when my garden isn't producing too much, i order a box of seasonal organic produce and try to think of things to make with all the yummy food i get.
