I am a wife and mother of three children. My husband and kids have been absolutely great in being my guinea pigs at the kitchen table. They have tried more things that they normally would not have tried and I think their openness to new foods has expanded. I am always trying new recipes. I do not think that I ever cook the same meal twice because I love experimenting and trying new things. I loved cooking with my grandwother in her custom farm kitchen. I miss the smells that would come from her kitchen. I try my best to recreate her recipes, but know that they will never be the same. Once a month or freezer meals. They have been a complete godsend for our family. I love finding new recipes and seeing if they will freeze well. It is nice to always have a meal in the freezer whenever we need it. Oh there are too many to write down. My only tradgedy would be if I gave up completely and I am not ready to do that.
