Thanks to all for a great site

Hi all,

I'd just like to thank everyone here for such a great site. I've been lurking here for some time, but finally decided to register and start participating in the forum (instead of simply lurking).

A little about myself?

First off, I'm no Chef...not at all. I love food and I enjoy cooking at home and at work. My love for all that is tasty is what drives me to enjoy cooking as much as I do.

So far I've only taken one "cooking class" from The French Culinary Experience in Wheeling Illinois. While I can admit the stocks and sauces class I took was an express course, to say the least. It still opened my eyes (and taste buds) to how I should have been cooking all along...and why my sauces would never turn out as I had planned or had hoped.

Some of my favorite foods to cook are Italian, Southern (U.S.), and various roasts, poultry or game with accompanying sauce.

again...thanks to everyone here who participates...you've added some spice to my kitchen. thank you
