I am a SAHM of 3, a stepson that is 9, a daughter that is 2 almsot 3 and a baby boy that just turned 4 months old :) and I love my life. I love to make new things, try out new recipes, or try to tweak the recipes that don't get all that great reviews and make them better. I also like to make homemade candy. I try to make my own traditions but on holiday's I try and stick to what I remember my Grandma making for the holiday's, because she always made them so special and filled with warmth and joy, and I would like to pass down those memories to my children. I never had touched a pan before I turned 18, my mom would always cook for me, but when i moved out at 18 I had my own place and 2 jobs, so I would stick to fast food, then when I met my husband we got married after only a year of dating, and he didn't like the "always eating out" moto. So I was kinda forced into learning how to cook, but I have gotten better everyday it's been almost 4 years and I have some things that everyone loves and some things that no one will touch lol:) Just try and cook when the kids are occupied with other things so they don't bombard me in the kitchen.
