When I can steal time I love to cook. My favorite way to spend an evening is to enjoy it with Food, Friends, Family, and a good wine. We live in beautiful Southern California and enjoy year round fresh fruits and veggies. My cooking influences are English, Caribbean, & French, with a dash of Southern comfort food. I am always looking for the healthier version of great meals and the nutritional information on this site is fantastic! I am so glad to find this website as it is so simple for me to organize my creations, get new ones, and simplify my trips to the grocery store.
