Favorite Foods:

I have a couple of favorite foods. My newest fave is a Shoyu Chicken recipe that my friend introduced me to. Next up would have to be another newer recipe to my family: Dad's Basil Linguine and Chicken. Mmmm

Favorite Restaurant(s):
I really don't have a favorite restaurant. Since moving to England, I do find that I miss Olive Garden A LOT!

Inspiration to Cook:
It has only been about 2 years since I really started to enjoy cooking. It all happened when I moved to England in 2010. My inspiration really came from the need to learn how to better budget and make our groceries stretch since England is so expensive. I started finding different ways to cook food I already knew, but with the stipulation that it had to include one new ingredient that I was not familiar with.

Feelings about New Foods:
I love trying new things. If I didn't try new ways or new things to cook, I would become quite bored. I even have a month long menu board so that I can make sure I don't fix the same meal more than a couple of times in one month.

At the Table:
I get pretty nervous when it comes time to cook for others. Heck, I get nervous when I cook for my husband.
