Author Notes
I'm planning on salmon for dinner tonight, marinated and then either grilled or broiled (depending on the weather). Normally I like to marinate the salmon in an orange marmalade based marinade. I thought I'd try it with a mango marinade this time. The marmalade was so good on its own that I thought I'd offer it. Serve on toast, biscuits, muffins or scones. —inpatskitchen

I think I get my love for food and cooking from my mom, who was an amazing cook. She would start baking and freezing a month before Christmas in order to host our huge open house on Christmas afternoon. I watched and I learned...to this day I try not to procrastinate when it comes to entertaining.
My cooking style is pretty much all over the place, although I'm definitely partial to Greek and Italian cuisine. Oh yes, throw a little Cajun in there too!
