I currently a student at Pomona College, just outside of Los Angeles. It's really hard to cook at school, but that hasn't changed my passion for food.
My favorite cookbooks are the Cooking Light annual recipe composition cookbooks (especially 2004) and the Nordstrom Friends and Family cookbook. And now recipezaar is one of the best cookbooks I use.
