I am the wife to the most wonderful husband and a busy mom to two boys and two girls ranging in age from 17 to 3. I work every Friday as a mammographer at a local hospital. I like to read, decorate the house, be outside and go to the movies but mostly going on dates with my husband!
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook just about anything that can be put together out of a normally stocked pantry! I am always trying new recipes which my husband likes but my kids aren't always as excited. I really enjoy baking for others.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love being at my parent's home and cooking with my mom and sisters it is such a fun way to be busy and spend time together. I try and cook with one of my children at least once a week.
My cooking triumphs
Baked goods I get so many compliments, I usually send something to work with my husband each week and they all complain they will get too fat!
My cooking tragedies
My first Thanksgiving dinner away from home...the temp. setting on the oven in our rental home was off so the turkey took for ever to cook and I used one of my mom's best "not written down" recipes for sweet potatoe casserole but it ended up as sweet potatoe soup YIKES!
