Another big influence over my cooking was my first college 'roommate' Gary and his girlfriend (now wife) Laura....
My mom taught me quite a bit, but it wasn't until I got to college that I started actually cooking for myself. I moved in with an old family friend (Gary) and Laura in Harrisonburg, Virginia. They were mostly vegetarian at the time and were very helpful in showing me proper ways of chopping vegetagbles, making pasta, and they were big into stir fry. Gary showed me how to cook tofu for the first time and how to best cook onions, peppers, and assorted other vegetables. They were an amazing force for me; passionate about food and a couple who obviously loved each other and helped me understand communication better. It was when I lived with them that I first got together with Kelly, so they were there to see the beginnings of my own lifetime relationship.
