What makes me a Foodie?

I cook, I'm an "eater!"

About Me:

Husband, father, dentist, signwriter, would be wood carver, yes all of these things, but mostly a man who likes to eat. Eating of course leads to cooking and you can often find me cooking for an ordinary family of five down here in sunny Hawkes Bay, New Zealand.
