30 years old from California, working as a Teacher's Aide for an elementary school. I have two step children, a dog and a cat! Never did much cooking until I settled down and married David. With his two kids and a house to run, eating out every night just isn't an option like it was in my 20's. But, I enjoy experimenting with new recipes and I'm getting better and better! I love to crock pot!! It's an easy way to make great meals while you are at work. I crock pot everything!! I enjoy baking a great deal, especially cakes from scratch. Sunday morning breakfasts that my dad would make, Summer barbecues and ofcourse holiday meals! Honey Butter Chicken and Tacos! When the kids clean their plates and ask for more, it's a winner!! Crab legs! The house smelled terrible and the they tasted even worse!!
