About Me
I am a happy mom with a great husband and an energetic funny 5 year old.
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake. I have recently been discovering a whole new world of foods for main meals that even my toddler will eat. sometimes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I have had to reinvent most of our family traditions to be healthier and easier. Both of my parents are gone, and the health issues raised by family histories has led us to try new ways of cooking and new foods.
My cooking triumphs
Cooking Thanksgiving for my family including my siblings and their families and having my sister in law say that I made it look easy.
My cooking tragedies
I conveniently banish the bad stuff from my mind. This may be an issue for a good therapist?
