Apparently I've been cooking too much Asian food since we moved to Okinawa! My husband who NEVER requests a meal, (he is always happy with what I choose he says), asked for something not Japanese, lol. He loves Cajun food so I created for this for him last night.

I am from a large Italian family where food and wine are at the center of everything we do. I love baking Traditional Italian cookies and I am also quite adventurous in my cooking, (and everywhere else in my life too)! Because of my husband's military career, we have lived all over and are currently stationed in Okinawa, Japan! Those adventures over the years have influence my cooking and made me the unique at-home chef that I am.
