What type of cook are you?

Hey there! This is my new blog and I choose to take this time to get to know the blog-scene. You will see my culinary interests here. So stick around for Mediterranean Food. Get ready for the 'oops, look what is left over in my fridge' type of recipes to the 'I got this all planned out and it is going to work out just fine', and anything in between.  This profile pic is one that represents the latter.  Together with my culinary experience and passion for creating we will make cooking a lot more pleasing and easier. So, which type of cook are you?

  1. 'oops, look what I have left over in my fridge, what am I going to do with it'
  2. 'I got this all planned out and it is going to work out just fine'
Let me know. 🙆

Hang on - I took the quiz on the food network and I found out that I am an occasion only cook. This may be who I am but surely does not reflect how I cook, nearly daily. I would prefer the planned occasion meal, I will give you that much. 

P.S. First I want to share with you in my next blog the importance of meals, today more than ever. 

The turkey was reared free range and slaughtered in the backyard and, where finally on Christmas day all got to taste this scrumptious bird. Covered in ghee, slow roasted and cut thinly after cooling the whole family got to enjoy the bird-feast.
