I am 32 years old and have been married for almost 14 years. I have 4 beautiful children and I am currently a SAHM. Cooking is my passion and my way of letting go of that daily stress is to turn on my Ipod and make a wonderful warm meal for my family.
My favorite things to cook
My family loves Italian food, so I am experimenting in that area lately. My best meals are usually a made up soup that I use leftovers to make. I also love experimenting with Asian foods. I also have a baby boy that I love to make homemade healthy finger foods for.
My favorite family cooking traditions
We have always enjoyed making and decorating Christmas cookies every year, and I make a wonderful ham dinner Christmas Day that everyone loves.
My cooking triumphs
This New Years Eve I made crab and shrimp lasagna rolls with homemade marinara that my entire family loved!!
My cooking tragedies
When I was first married I wanted to make something nice for my husband and so I decided to make baked chicken. My grandmother told me to soak the chicken in salt water to draw out the blood before baking, and well I did and I suppose I used too much salt because I watched my husbands face turn bright red after the first bite. He tried to pretend it was good, but after I took a bite, I laughed until I cried....
