Today is the first day of my maternity leave! I will be a new mom any day now and I am trying to find fun and healthy ways to feed my husband and I and of course the baby! I have enjoyed cooking in the past, but now that I will have some time I am interested in trying new things! I grew up in an Italian American family and have always enjoyed cooking Italian. My husband is a great cook and has always been able to pull a delicious meal from nothing. I would love to have his skill. I make an AWESOME Italian gravy! And everything Thanksgiving I make a wonderful Turkey cake :) I bought a turkey mold and make a wonderful spice cake. It is always a hit!
