I live in Yonkers, NY. I've been in love with cooking for as long as I can remember.
When I'm not at work or cooking, I love camping, photography, reading and roadtrips. I also love getting out and exploring New York City...there's just so much to see and do here. One of my favorite things to do here is to check out the great farmers market we have in NY.
I have an addiction to cookbooks, cooking magazines, recipezaar and cooking shows. If the internet (especially 'zaar) counts as a cookbook, then it's absolutely the most used one in my kitchen. I'm trying to utilize the public library a bit more so I can cut back on the amount of money I spend on cookbooks, but some of them are just too beautiful to resist!
