Hi my name is Shree. I love cooking although sometimes I get stressed instead of enjoying it. I have been collecting cookbooks and recipes that Id like to try for most of my life. I even started writing a cookbook one time. I never finished it though LOL! I still collect recipes and I like to try my own twist on most of them. I guess Im famous for my deserts, but I like cooking all kinds of dishes. I like to find things at a restaurant that I can recreate at home with similar ingredients.
