I am a married mother of 5 children. I work out of the home part time and in the home full time! I enjoy sewing, scrapbooking and spending time with family. We have birds and frogs and enjoy nature. We are trying hard to take red meat out of our diet, make more meals with little or no added sugar and salt, and to use our treadmill more often.
My favorite things to cook
I love making a big pot of chili on cold winters day or chopping fresh produce from the farmers market for a light dinner on a warm summers eve.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Baking and decorating sugar cookies for friends and family with my children. We bake for most holidays and enjoy giving them as gifts. It shows that we care and took special time to create their gifts!
My cooking triumphs
Tofu Lasagna and homemade Egg Rolls
My cooking tragedies
Trying to alter baking recipes to make them healthier or to make up for ingredients that I did not have on hand.
