How did I learn to cook?

 

I love to cook, but it wasn't always that way. Growing up I used to flounder around in the kitchen making stuff even my dog wouldn't eat (ask me about my experience with tofu someday). The more I cooked the better I got. It's that simple really.

 

Why do I say "even my husband can do it"?

 

When I met my husband Jared, all he had in is fridge was a loaf of bread, cheese singles and cheap sandwich meat.  His idea of a nice dinner was a microwaved lasagna.  Call me spoiled, but microwaved food is not my idea of a good time. 

So began our adventure of life together, me the fussy eater, and Mr. Kraft singles.  As I'm sure you can guess, I became the cook and he became …well the guy who played video games while I slaved away over a hot stove.

It didn't take long for him to learn to enjoy a good meal, and pretty soon he was learning to cook for himself. 

 

Who am I exactly?

 

I’m just a normal suburban housewife.  I grew up in New Zealand, but now live in beautiful, rainy Washington.  When I get home sick, I cook.  I love to cook New Zealand cuisine. Things I miss from home.  I will try to publish as many of these recipes as I can, time willing.  

 

We recently became pescetarian, meaning we eat seafood, but no other meat.  This has been a challange, and I reall miss my meat pies.  I hope in the future to expand this blog and share more of my favourtie recipes with you, but for now, this will have to do.  

 

Thank you for reading.
