I learned to cook in the Coast Guard, worked in several resturants after leaving the service, and still cook as a hobby.
My birthday is January 27th, but I'm not telling what year!! I have 2 beautiful children 2 girls ages 2 and 9, a husband who is very much like a third child, a dog, a cat, and a tank full of fish.
My RAK wish list:
A friendly smile!
A funny joke.
Heat resistant rubber spatulas.
Good vanilla beans.
Any exotic spices.
And because this is a wish list after all, a good 10" Nonstick sautee pan with deep sides!
