I recently bought my first house, and LOVE having friends and family over to eat and hang out. I teach 4th grade math and science. I love experimenting with new recipes and enjoy entertaining. Depending on the time of year, I cook different types of food. I love to make soups and comfort food in the winter. I enjoy most types of cuisine. My favorite family cooking traditions are mostly sweets that my grandmother made growing up. She was a fabulous, yet meticulous cook. Everything she did was perfection. I like to make candies and cakes at Christmas from her recipes.
