I've just started a food blog and would love for those interested in cooking and recipes to check it out. You can follow my food journey at http://onecookbookatathyme.wordpress.com/
Cooking for family and friends is one of my favorite things to do. I spend most of my free time in the kitchen, either checking out Recipezaar or experimenting with a newly found recipe.
My DH and I are both from Texas and we both come from Italian families. Anyone who stops by my house should be prepared to eat!!! I'm always forcing friends and family to try whatever it is that just came out of the oven. I know that is a horrible habit but I can't break it... I think it must be the Italian in me! LOL :)
My sister (Cookin_Kit) and I used to help my Mom (JudaThann) in the kitchen a lot growing up. I guess that is where my love for cooking began. I also enjoy sharing the kitchen with my DH (Sgt. Pepper). He doesn't cook as often as he did when we first got married, but he makes an awesome pizza and still makes them at least twice a month. He keeps his recipes for the dough and the sauce top secret, even from me. LOL
I have two step-children. The oldest graduated from college and the youngest is a sophomore at Texas Tech. I also have two cats and a dog. When I?m not cooking or hanging out here at Zaar, I like to knit, garden, read, watch old movies, travel, take photos, scrapbook, volunteer at a non-kill animal shelter, and spend time with my family and friends.
I'm a co-host with Karen From Colorado in the Mexican/Tex-Mex/Southern United States Cooking Forum. Come visit us sometime!
I'm also a co-host with Richard-NYC and Dee514 in the Italian Cooking Forum.

Although Italian food is my ultimate favorite, Mexican food comes in a very close second! You can't live in Texas and not like Mexican food!
DH and the kids often request my homemade spaghetti and meatballs, "Call the Fire Department" Hot Wings, meatloaf and mashed potatoes, chocolate chip cookies, and brownies.
I also have a sweet-tooth especially for CHOCOLATE! The smells of cookies, brownies, pies, and cakes are always lingering in my kitchen... especially around the holidays.
