I am a happy newlywed (since October 2006) and Registered Nurse currently in Cardiology. During my spare time, I love to cook and bake. There is something about taking raw ingredients and creating a dish that fulfills and relaxes me. I also love taking recipes and trying to tweak the ingredients to make it a little healthier and more heart friendly.
