About Me

Wow, how time flies! I just reread my profile and realized it was far beyond time to revise it. I don't know where the time has gone...though maybe having a 15 year old son and an 13 year old daughter has something to do with how fast it's gone!

When I joined 'Zaar, it was an accident of fate that I even found the site. I was looking for a recipe on another site, they didn't have it so I ended up here. I have been here ever since. I honestly do not believe there is a day that goes by that I am not browsing through recipes. 'Zaar is my most favorite web haunt-I can't imagine life without it! I even travel with my laptop so I have 'Zaar at my fingertips on vacation!

Recently I have been on a search to convert all our old favorite foods into healthier versions...all the flavor but less of the bad stuff. Thankfully for the most part, it's been a successful endeavor! And a good thing, too! My family loves to eat!

If I had my druthers, my kitchen would be located in the Outer Banks of North Carolina...more specifically beachfront on Hatteras Island, preferably in Avon or Hatteras Village. It would be wall to wall windows with a wrap around deck right outside the french doors, just steps away from the stove and coffee maker. That would enable me to start my mornings exactly the way I like to...with something completely delicious baking in the early morning while I sit on my deck, sipping my coffee and watching the sun rise over the Atlantic before anyone else is up and about.

In reality, my kitchen is entirely too small and located in the south east burbs of Pittsburgh. It's ok, I can dream! If I could have just one wish for my house granted, and it was not an entire kitchen remodel, I would opt for two ovens. My life would be so much simpler with two!
