I have 4 children, all grown now; the youngest is 19 and the oldest is 31. My favorite times are the holidays when the family comes over. I like to make big meals for all of us to enjoy. We like to barbeque in the summer and I am always looking for new recipes. I like to make homemade meatballs and sauce for a Sunday dinner. My family looks forward to the holidays - when I make a French Onion Soup that they love. When it is one of the kids birthdays, they pick what they want me to make - usually they are very traditional and love roast beef, mashed potatoes and gravy.
