Happy married. Mom of 2 teen girls. Our fur family includes a lovable mutt named Kemo & three cats (Mia, Oreo & Baby Bella). Work full-time as a graphic designer for an insurance company. Anything others enjoy...especially yeast rolls, pizza/calzone & cookies. Christmas cookies have been my tradition for many years...a simple, yet pleasing gift for family and friends - better than any expensive gift I could buy. I felt like a grown-up when we hosted Thanksgiving and Christmas at our home several years ago for the family (in-laws and out-laws). I was also very pleased with my daughter's high school graduation open house. During our first year of marriage, I saw a chicken/rice slow cooker recipe on TV and copied the ingredients (this was before DVR). I must've left an ingredient out. We named it Chicken Nasty, threw it out and ordered pizza! We still use this to rate recipes...is it as bad as Chicken Nasty?
