I'm a radiographer and have a 4 year old son, 1 year old daughter, and wonderful husband. I don't cook as much now as I used to, I guess I just have more demands on my time, but I still really enjoy it. I like to try to cook new ethnic foods. Umm, family tradition is probably more eating, than cooking. I once made an entirely Polish Thanksgiving from recipes I found in a cookbook put together by Polish immigrants in the 40's. It was delicious. Numerous, probably my jack o lantern cake was the saddest, pecan pie-should have known a northern girl coudn't make pecan pie, it wouldn't set.
