Welcome!

Me helping to clean the dishes after mixing a batch
of cake batter.  I was an excellent kitchen assistant.

If you've somehow managed to stumble upon this little page about food and all things eating, welcome!  This will be my tiny corner of the blogosphere where I share favorite family recipes, review restaurants in and beyond Houston, and share some handy tips and tricks in the kitchen I've learned over the years.

Even at a young age, I was never a picky eater.  Broccoli, spinach, basil--I didn't mind any of it.  I've always been one to try something at least once.  Whether visiting a new restaurant or experimenting with a new recipe, there have been some hits and misses.  This will simply be a personal account of what I find amazingly tasty, what I believe is worth a taste, and what no one with any functioning taste buds should ever go near.

I might even disclose some of my kitchen and food disasters, ranging in degree from mildly embarrassing to one incident that led to a quick trip to the hospital.  Stay tuned!
