About Me

UPDATE: I'm going to have to change my username as the "Zee" portion is based on the last name I have had for the last 23 years. I'm getting re-married on Sept 3 to a wonderful man and I'm not going to keep my ex-husband's name! So ZeeCooks will be changing. His nickname for me is Pixie so....I'll use that! Now, back to the regular channel:

I'm the mother of triplet daughters. I'm a critical care nurse by background, and I work fulltime as a hospice RN, team leader. I love to cook and bake. I love to eat but I'm being really calorie-conscious these days so I try to practice portion control so I don't have to eliminate all the good stuff from my diet. My fiance, however, is a wonderful taste tester for me and never, ever complains about my many experiments and new dishes. Love that man.

I also like to scrapbook and read, time permitting! I like to find old cookbooks to add to my collection. I have 3 cats: one fat old mean cat (but I love him!) named Tiger Jack, a gray calico named Cupcake, and a black cat named StellaLuna. My boyfriend recently moved in with me (getting married in September) and he brought his three cats with him (Arwen, Roxanne, and Thomasina). So, um, yeah, we have way too many cats but what to do?! One dog...a shepherd/sheltie mix named Greta.

I've been majorly addicted to RecipeZaar...now Food.com which is a bit less impressive, I must admit. ! I'm working on producing a cookbook for my daughters for when they move on to their own households. They just finished their third year of college--where does time go?!

I'm from Pittsburgh, PA. Go Steelers!! I'm a recent Pirate fan, too. I'm still a "newbie" to baseball but I'm learning. Go Bucs!
