I'm a stay at home of 2 girls, ages 5 years and 8 months. I'm also expecting another baby that's due in April 2009. I spent my childhood and teenage years in the kitchen with my mom and grandma. We always had dinner at the table and that's a tradition I have enforced in my home today. My cooking style is comfortfood and beyond! I love rich sauces and cheesy additions. Sometimes I feel lazy and just do a boxed meal but I'll make up the next day by going above and beyond for my family! Pasta dishes, pinto beans, fried chicken, brownies, cookies, meatloaf We get together and cook HUGE meals for all the special occasions. Christmas and Thanksgiving are a given, but we love to cook in my family so we don't just stop there! Any holiday is fair game: Labor Day, Easter, Memorial Day, and even birthdays are all celebrated with food, and lots of it!! I finally mastered the hashbrown casserole my mom used to make for us and now I've made it my own! My hubby loves this dish and would eat it once a week if he could! Parmesan Chicken. I LOVE my personal recipe for this dish! It's so full of flavor and the chicken is always so juicy! Sadly, my first few tries for pound cake went horribly wrong. The neighborhood dogs didn't even touch it!!
