They are now 5yrs and 4yrs old respectively as of November 2009.
I only work part time these days due to arthritus in my hands.
I love to cook and try new foods.
I like Middle Eastern cooking as I travelled to Turkey and Cyprus and got hooked on the foods there.
I collect cookbooks and probably have over 100 in my library so far, British, Greek, Turkish, Italian, Indian, Spanish, French, German, Jewish and Asian.
