For the Love of Cooking

So I'm going out on a limb and venturing out into this blog world.  I am definitely not a writer (I teach math and science and hated my English classes in school), but simply wanted a place to put all of my photos from cooking.  Nothing fancy.

My husband and I love to cook...well, ok mostly my husband, Johnny.  We grew up in two different lifestyles when it comes to home cooking.  He is half Mexican, half Italian with lots of homemade meals from his culture.  Being raised by my single mom, I grew up loving Hamburger Helper. You can imagine our cooking experiences after marriage.

I am very spoiled to have a husband who loves to cook.  I started mostly watching him with a glass of wine in one hand and my camera in another.  Now I'm trying to jump in more as his sous chef, even sometimes leading.  Either way, we love to cook together and share our food with friends and family.

I have learned so much about cooking and have appreciated family traditions and recipes so much more now. I've collected so many recipes on my Pinterest boards and reached out to my mom and late Gram to find German recipes from my family.  Many recipes I've yet to try so hopefully this blog will push me a little further.

Hope you can join me on this journey in our Cucina Petraglia...
