I am retired but operate a sewing and alteration business out of my home. vegetables I make a mean beef stew My girls always looked forward to my spaghetti sauce when they would come home from college. I started adding grated zucchini to my banana bread and it is so moist, also instead of vanilla extract-I use banana extract. I was told that my rice pudding could be used as an anchor!!! Not able to make a good bread pudding either.
