I am a journalist who has decided to start a blog - a blog that is mine, all mine, and not related to my day job. And I've decided to focus on food because I am completely, totally and endlesly obsessed. Ask anyone who knows me.
It started early on, when as a small tot my parents made me taste everything that came across my plate. I didn't fight them on it. Soon, my French grandma was fattening me up with cream puffs, bacon tomato quiche and chocolate pastries for breakfast. My Polish grandma churned out dumplings, golabki, sauerkraut, sausages.
I was the kid who, after begging for ice cream one summer evening, was directed out to the garden where I gorged on tomatoes in my nightgown.
I married for food - and love, too, of course. My husband (then just a boyfriend) won my heart by cooking the most exquisite dishes my college palate had ever tasted. I'll share those recipes another day.
I've never cooked professionally - I have never even baked a turkey on my own - and my tastes range from the elegant to the everyday (I love a big bucket of buttery movie popcorn and I'm not ashamed to admit it). In short, I love to write, I love to eat, and I'm going to write about eating here. Feel free to follow the crumbs I drop along the way.
