Happy wife and mother of four - 23 yr old, 13 yr old, 10 yr old and 7 yr old. Enjoy reading, scrabble, chess and long walks. Love to play dance dance dance revolution, rock band, guitar hero and american idol with my kids. A dreamer that loves to write, sing, bake, photography, painting, swim, enjoy animals and help people. One of my dreams is to go back to school for writing and pastry chef.
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake but I have a terrible sweet tooth so I try not to do too much unless I have plenty of people to eat it.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Just starting to inlcude my girls in the preparation process so they can become comfortable in the kitchen early.
My cooking triumphs
Convection oven turkey was awesome for Thanksgiving last year
My cooking tragedies
As a young cook I remember trying to make a green cake that was not edible. Not having food coloring available and no adult to consult - I used green jello in the mix and it never gelled (smile, pun on words). I was so discouraged.
