Hi I am a proud Mama of four sweet babies, My twins are 6 , my son is 3 and my newest little sweet girl is 2 months. I have been married to my best friend for about nine years. He is from Iraq and that challenged me to learn how to cook. He taught me the basics and now I can hold my own!! I ove to make special dinners for each member of the family. So whetever is the special ocassion. That person gets to choose there menu. I am like most Mamas, I love to see my family feel special. That is why I enjoy cooking/baking so much. When we cook for our family we cook so much. We sit on the floor in a cirlce and enkoy the tasty food and enjoy each others company. In the middle eastern culture you always make sure people feel that you have enough food. You always serve your guests first, and make sure they have plenty. I have so many. I will keep those to myself for now. I would go on for ever and ever. I make mistakes all of the time. That is how I learn.
