Hi Everyone! For fun I like to cook, eat and drink and occassionaly get out and do some exercise to balance out all the eating I do. Like alot of other people at Zaar I have way too many cookbooks and I just keep buying them (I can't help myself). My poor partnerdoesn't get much of a look-in in the kitchen department anymore, mind you he'd rather eat than cook, so we're a perfect match.
