I am the mother of 4 wonderful children. I have 3 boys, ages 16, 10, and 8. I have one daughter that is 7. My youngest son has Fragile X Syndrome. I have been a LPN for 12 years. Every day is an adventure. I recently had my scheduled changed so I could be home with my children more. I love cooking for my family!
My favorite things to cook
Anything my kids will eat. My oldest son is a very picky eater. I also am challenged with finding foods that my youngest son will eat with his sensory and texture issues.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love cooking things that my grandmother used to make. I was recently presented with a cookbook of all of my grandmother's recipes. I was so excited. No matter how hard I try it just does not taste like grams. I will keep trying!
My cooking triumphs
Christmas dinner. My grandmother's health is failing so I have been trying to make all the favorites she has made for years. No complaints so far.
My cooking tragedies
I attempted to make a baseball hat for my oldest sons 5th birthday. My sister and I were up for hours. It was edible but not very pretty.
