I have an amazing husband and a wonderful little boy named Solomon. He was born on March 9, 2008 in my own home - an AMAZING experience! I am extremely interested in health, and one of my favorite books is the Maker's Diet. I think EVERYONE should read this book! I work for a company called Saladmaster and do healthy cooking shows in people's homes. I teach people how to prepare great-tasting, healthy food in half the time. It's a lot of fun. I only do this a few times a week, so I'm usually home with my son. I also teach piano and voice lessons in my home. AND... I LOVE life! :o) Anything healthy. I love experimenting and just throwing a bunch of things together. I am constantly in search of truly healthy recipes. Hmmm... Unfortunately my family doesn't have any traditions. I'm looking forward to starting my own, though! Well, I love cooking for my in-laws. My mother-in-law is an AMAZING cook, so when she likes my food, that's when I feel the best about myself. The only thing I can think of was pretty bad... I was threw my husband a party for his 21st birthday. We had only been married for a month. He requested pizza of course, but he wanted frozen pizza instead of ordering it from a pizza place... Easy enough, right? In the middle of the party (with over 40 people in the house) as I was trying to get a pizza from the oven, I ended up pushing it off the back end of the rack onto the burner. It messed up that pizza and filled our house with smoke. It was pretty embarrassing because I didn't know anyone very well, and I didn't want them to think I didn't know how to cook because in actuality I LOVE cooking and am pretty good at it! I just grinned and beared it though. He still talks about how amazing it was that I threw that party for him and never mentions the pizza incident!
