RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in Westchester, just north of New York City. I am a master gardener and I teach workshops about growing, appreciating and using herbs for school groups. I love to cook and garden. Just about everything in my garden is edible or has some herbal property. My all time favorite cookbook is The New Basics. I love to play tennis and volleyball but can't play as much as I would like to as I am slowly but steadily falling apart.
