40 year old, SAHM, homeschooling my 2 boys (ages 12 & 17) Living with my soul mate and partner of 13 years. He and I spend tons of time in the kitchen. Casseroles, perogies, anything with that "midwest homemade flair". I wait for every fall when the wild game hunting season hits. Love to spend the winter with fresh game in the freezer. Just at that age when I am setting my own traditions. My mother was never an avid cook.
