I am a stay home mom of 4, ages 11,8,6,5. i spend alot of time volunteering at their school and with their various sports activities. My 2 middle children love to cook with me so i get lots of help in the kitchen! I love to bake. I make cakes, brownies, etc all the time - especially for the kids to take into their classes. My 4 kids and I spends many evenings baking Christmas cookies from Thanksgiving through Christmas eve. We then wrap and distribute the cookies to neighbors, friends, teachers as gifts. Everyone looks forward to this annual tradition. I made a Thanksgiving dinner for 40+ people when my husband was in the navy. He invited everyone on the ship who didn't have family to go to. We had people drifting in and out all day. I made a pan of brownies for my oldest sons kindergarten class several years ago. They turned out being rocks!! All the kids still laugh about that even though I have made tons of perfect ones since!
