I'm a wife, and a mom of 2 boys, one of which has Leukemia. I'm continuously making sure he's getting the proper foods. Organic is a must with our family and yogurt, veggies and fruit are a staple for snacks. I even sneak the veggies into their favorites, like Mac & Cheese...they never know the difference.
My favorite things to cook
Slow cooker recipes because it's so nice to have your meal ready and waiting for you at the end of the day.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Cooking with my 3 and 4-year-old. It takes longer and there's more clean up, but they love being included!
My cooking triumphs
Venison, which husband brings home from hunting.
My cooking tragedies
I had my apartment building evacuated due to a bubbling-over veggie lasagna. It was very embarrassing. The lasagna ended up tasting great (of course, it was infused with smoke). But, I learned my lesson that certain vegetables release more moisture than others :)
