I love experimenting on new, fresh and healthy dishes at home that feature anything from the garden and fresh herbs -- scraps always get passed along to my adorable doggies, Nico, Milou and Rex.</p> <p><br />During the day, I work here at Food.com. When I'm not focusing on food, I'm running away to rural upstate NY to play with the chickens, reading the New Yorker or watching waaaaay too much daytime TV (thank goodness my favorite show moved online now!).</p> <p>Also, I now have lots of cats! 5 to be exact. We're a bit weak to the strays that need a helping hand and a loving home, but I've also managed to get many fixed and placed in other homes too. I consider that my second full-time job. :)</p>
