About Me

I’m Lindzee. I love to cook . I’m currently in my very late twenties living in Boise, Idaho.  I have an unhealthy obsession with the color pink and most of my kitchen appliances are pink.  Whenever I see an kitchen tool/appliance in pink,  I have to exercise restraint to keep from purchasing something I already have in another color.  I am a huge klutz who loves running and  is always covered in dog hair from my 4-year-old Cavalier named Maverick (or Susan Sarandon as we refer to him around the house).

Maverick and I moved from Seattle, Washington in June of 2008 and are really glad we made the move to Boise.  Although I miss many things about Seattle (Good Sushi & Good Friends), I love Boise and everything it has to offer.  You can’t beat the atmosphere in downtown Boise on a summer night and I love having so many friends from college close by and an amazing roommate, Katie. She is pretty.

Plus, I met my wonderful boyfriend Javier while living in Boise.  Here is a pic of us eating from the taco truck.

I graduated from  University of Idaho in 2002 with a degree in communication and have held sales/marketing positions since graduating.  I have loved cooking ever since I started working in my Dad’s restaurant at age 15 and served my first chicken breast with a raw middle.  I enjoy experimenting with new ingredients and trying to copy restaurant dishes. The kind souls that eat my experimental dishes sometimes ask for my recipes and I think this is an easy way to pass them along.
