Thanks for visiting me at Miranda's Table

As many of you know I love to feed my family and friends. Sometimes I take the day to savor the ideas and sometimes I use what I already have at home. Either way it is fun to surprise my hungry guests.

My passion for cooking began at home with my Mum, of course. At a very young age I would stand in the Dog's bed next to the Aga (Stove) and watch her cooking and later we would talk and cook together. 30 odd years later when I visit her and Dad in England she leaves me to do most of the cooking though Mum is always present for chit chat and encouragement.

In my 20's it was all about The Bridge Street Cafe. Baking with my Cousin Sal and making fresh pasta for the evening crowd were my duties at first. Then, as the years went by, I watched and learned from Greg, Pedro, Dan, Paul and of course Pam Storey. By then the Food Network was getting started and inspirational chefs were peaking my interest. The rest is history.

I will enveavor to keep posting and cooking. Enjoy!

Mya, here are some words of encouragement on your quest this year to feed your family

"Some people like to paint pictures, or do gardening, or build a boat in the basement. Other people get a tremendous pleasure out of the kitchen, because cooking is just as creative and imaginative an activity as drawing, or wood carving, or music."Julia Child
