Hi, I'm Sara and I like to cook. I live and cook in Alexandria, Virginia with my huband and two cats (husband is far more helpful in the cooking department than the cats). I love just about every food out there and hopefully that is reflected in the recipes on this site. I especially enjoy: red wine, crunchy salads, all cheeses, grilled anything, and pesto.
It's much easier for me to list the foods I do not care for so here it goes:
1. Maple syrup on pancakes. Seriously, the thought kills me. Give me butter and jam please.
2. Lima beans. Texture, 'nuff said.
3. "Fake banana taste". You know, the banana muffins, breads, splits, cakes, and all other such nonsense.
However, this list is not set in stone. Until recently, I thought I did not like brussel sprouts and then I broke down and tried the Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Shiitakes and Cream from Fine Cooking (recipe is not available on their site anymore!) But trust me, it was fabulous and I am now a convert.
