Hello Everyone

**Roberta** · 02-25-2010, 11:30 AM

I am looking forward to being a part of this community and learning more about using spices in my cooking. I live in the Midwest and hope to meet cooks in other parts of the country and the world.

Hi Rick from Georgia. What part of Georgia are you in? My brother lives near Atlanta, in Jackson.

What do you like to cook? I am in to easy recipes for one or two. That is my speciality.

I'm in the mountains of N Georgia, about 4 hours north of Jackson
I like basic comfort type food mostly Italian dishes and good old BBQ

LOVE your name. I see you live on or near the Jersey shore. Hope you are not getting any of that blizzard snow and high winds.

Howdy Roberta! And welcome to Spice Place! I'm kevin- and I'm a fellow mid-westerner. I call central Illinois home. I also lived and worked for many years in Alaska- which, oddly enuf- taught me a renewed interest and appreciation for the mid-west!
