RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I will start by saying that I love to cook and also love collecting recipes so I am very happy to have joined Recipezaar and really enjoy going through all the recipes that have been generously posted by other members. I only cook for myself during the week but on weekends I usually have 2 meals to prepare for family and friends. I am on WW and try to keep my choices in line with WW but will indulge myself and save a few recipes that don't fit in with WW for special occasions. My favourite food is curry and am always on the look out for a new curry recipe. I love to garden as my Zaar name would indicate, I grow tomotoes and herbs but space is limited so mostly I have perennial and annual flowers and plants. My baby is a lovely little ShihTzu X Poodle named Rosie, she is my only child so of course is spoiled rotten. Rosie's favourite meal is lamb and sweet potato. http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/708494/dirty%20Rosie.jpg <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg" alt="" /> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg" alt="" /> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket>" />
