I'm a wife to one and a mom to three - a preschooler son and toddler identical twin daughters. I don't get the time to cook as much as I like to, but I get the chance to experiment now and then. I love Italian food and could cook it all day. I'd like to tackle making my own pasta some time! I'd also love to learn how to make sushi, although I think I may be stretching my abilities... Tortilla soup, chili and beans-and-rice when it's cold out! Baking my own bread and creating things from scratch. Too many to count! I've set of the smoke detector more than I care to admit and my husband knows that I when I say that a dish I am preparing is going to taste, "rustic," that it's code for "burned."
