I teach first grade and I love it! I love to cook from scratch and to try new and different recipes. I make meals for my team all the time so send me recipes that are good for lots of people! For my self I love to make quick, tasty, and healthy meals but I also love to bake and have parties for friends. I am German so we have sourkraut at Thanksgiving (well, and with everything). We also have a family bake-off on Holidays. Just recently I made a Lonely Chicago Pie and came in second place in a pie contest. The first night in my new apartment I attempted to make mac and cheese from scratch with bacon but I burned the bacon so bad I had to quit and air out to place to stop the fire alarm. But I still blame the new stove!
