Born in New England, but raised in the Southeast US I have had a wide variety of influences in my food tastes. Being gluten free for almost 20 years due to Celiac disease, I have learned that I can make almost anything free of gluten if I try. A recipe to me is just a guideline, I tend to modify everything either to be gluten free or to my tastes. I love to bake, cook and grill.
I joined this website when it was still RecipeZaar and will be updating some of my older recipes that I have since modified.
