1. Finish this sentence: To me cooking is....a necessary evil.
2. What is always in your fridge? Can be more than one item. Hardboiled eggs, oj, blueberries, :ratio Keto friendly yogurt.
3. What is your kitchen tool that you can't live without? My mini ladle. I love that thing.
4. Did you discover any new techniques or foods during the lock down? Nope. Working 60 hours a week didn't leave much time for improvisation.
5. What food says "home" to you? BBQ, potato salad, baked beans and yeast rolls.
6. What is your if- I-only-had-one-left meal? Steak, all day, all ways.
7. What favorite style of cooking do you use the most? I use the 'rushed for time, cutting corners where I can' method. It has its moments.

I love, love, love food! I do not love cooking or baking. I love watching shows about cooking and baking but the actual act is not pleasurable for me. However, I have many happy memories associated with food. My favorite meal of all time was in Reno at a casino restaurant. It was a filet mignon with a peppercorn cream sauce, whipped potatoes and broccoli. Crème Brûlée for dessert. I was on my honeymoon and it was the best thing ever.

I remember my mother making me goulash when I was still in training pants, the first time I actually enjoyed salmon.....it was Bourbon glazed in Seattle and it was the turning point for my appreciation of salmon and understanding that West coast salmon is far superior to East coast salmon, and the first time I had kettle corn, fresh and hot from the cooker at a festival. Come to think of it, I had the salmon with Crème Brûlée too. It was a mini trio sampler and it was divine.

Did I mention that I love food?
