Hi!!! My name is cari, mother of 4 and 2 grandson. I have been raising my children for 24 years, became a good cooker, with all kinds of food to cook with, I enjoy that almost everyday...I love to explore different culture of foods...I am happily married for 9 years from my second marriage... My favorite cook~ italian and mexican foods, especially thanksgiving feast and after thanksgiving left over casserole...its really good.. My grandfather came to america from azores, portugal, his mother gave my grandmother recipe for portgugues soup traditional for over 65 years, I make portgugues soup once a year for family tradtion. Just cooking along with my rythmes, sometimes children would ask me to cook their favorite meal like roast beef sandwich with beef broth with special ingredients, or mexican enchiladas. Well, my first 6 months of cooking was terrible and making careless mistake, burn the foods, it takes a lot of pratice to learn how to cook right...now I am proud of myself how to cook right,
