Hello everyone!

I am an avid baker and have over the last year and a half started to explore the wonders of French pastries. I am finally an empty nester and now have the time to try all of the wonderful French recipes I love to eat. I am married to a Portuguese man and he is the one who opened the wonderful world of cooking to me and all of its amazing flavors before that I was like any other young adult I cooked from a box. LOL 

Hope to peruse and get to know others here who also have a love of baking/cooking!

Hello, Carol. @Franci, who knows a whole lot about baking, also lives in South Florida. Here's a mention in the NY Times, from when she lived there.

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

A king can stand people's fighting, but he can't last long if people start thinking. -Will Rogers, humorist

Welcome, Carol!  I'm really looking forward to seeing your food.  Do you do any Portuguese baking?

I know only a few dishes but my husband also cooks and he knows more.

Thanks for the mention, @Alex, welcome to the forum @cdesousa5. I was a baker but baking very little these days 😅 

Hi Franci, 

I saw a post that you made about Fishmongers and I was wondering where that is because I would like to buy some fresh fish like you found. Would you mind sharing with me where that is?

Thanks so much!

Carol
