I am a happily married mother of three children ages 11, 3, 2. We all spend lots of time in the kitchen cooking. Our specialty is baking. We deal with food allergies of eggs and peanuts. But good baking and cooking is still very possible and lots of times even easy. We enjoy baking cakes, cookies, and anything that requires fun family time. I am an army brat that has been to many countries and states. We have befriended lots of different cultures. I cant say that we have a specific type of tradition. It is very diverse. My favorite triumph is an egg-less and wonderful pound cake. Too numerous to count. It just comes with experience. You have to eat your mistakes.
