Work in the energy industry but love to cook, bake and sew whenever I can spare the time. In between I like reading fiction. I come from a family of cooks, parents, aunts and uncles. They have worked in a variety of venues. As the oldest child, I began cooking as part of my home responsibilities but grew to develop a love for it. I don't have one favorite cookbook; I will usually try a variety of cusines. Probably lean more toward traditional southern style, cajun/creole and italian. also like casseroles. Have been compiling a cookbook of family receipes. I get alot of requests for my gumbo, oven-roasted chicken and german chocolate cake.
