I am 31 and have been married for 4 years. I have a 10 year old daughter and 2 stepsons. I work 2 jobs and my daughter dances 4 nights a week. It's too expensive to eat out all the time, so I need quick and easy meals that are tasty and different from the norm. I like to cook in the crock pot. It's so easy and takes the pressure off on those late nights. I'm a decent cook, but I don't like the time it takes to put a meal together. People always pick on me about my "lack of culinary talent", but I CAN cook as long as I have a recipe and the time. I've been cooking with my mom since I was little. We didn't have alot of money, so we never ate out. My mom is an amazing cook and she taught me how to do most things, but my kids are pretty picky eaters and sometimes it's hard to find things to cook that everyone will eat. My crock pot brisket!!! It's awesome! My first meal with my husband. I made baked chicken breasts and over salted them so much that we both gagged! I was SO embarrassed!
