RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I LOVE to cook and try different recipes. I grew up in a German household and my mother was the best Bavarian cook ever. But, a lot of her dishes were plain and very basic. I love spices and unusual things. I've even tried sea urchin once (not a favorite).
I am an RN and work in informatics and as a adjunct faculty at a Community College. I love to travel.
My favorite cookbook is "Joy of Cooking" and the "Taste of Home" series
