I am still adjusting to being a civilian, my children have completely transitioned.  My Husband and I are slower in the process.  I love being home and cooking more, my garden last year gave me tons of new hobbies, canning, gardening, trying to salvages seeds from heirloom varieties.  I am also taking up quilting.  I like reading, cooking, hiking, playing with my girls outside.  

Teriyaki chicken;Roasted Turkey, Ham, Fried cabbage & French onion soup.   Anything from my smoker especially pork.  I love meats and veggies that have been flame kissed, barbecue,broiling fire roasted or smoked.  I have been to many countries (military related) and I have never found a cuisine style that  I don't like.  I like to mix cuisines.  Southern food mixes well with asian flavors.  Pacific island fairs well too.  I like kahlua pork with southern style fried cabbage. I like experimenting with flavor combos.
