I have loved cooking all my life. Over the years, friends have said I should open a restaurant. I just enjoy cooking for others and I also enjoy eating and trying new foods. I have three grown children and three grandchildren who live with me. I lost my husband almost two years ago. He loved to eat and was always game for trying new dishes. We lived in Puerto Rico and on Guam so we loved trying all the dishes of each of those islands and other places we visited during our 37 year marriage. I'm enjoying this website so much. I have a trillion cookbooks but I rarely look at them anymore because of Zaar. Rarely a day passes that I don't see what's cooking here. Thanks to all the lovely people who share their favorite recipes. I'm going to start posting some of mine soon.
