Right now I am a single, working mom with three children and a fiance'. I enjoy cooking when I have the time. I teach kindergarten which I love. I love to read and have just started working on my family tree which I find totally fascinating! My family loves homemade macaroni and cheese and my chicken spaghetti. We also love burgers and steaks (or almost anything else) on the grill. I am fortunate to be engaged to a meat market manager so, we always get good meats. I love to go home to my mom's for a meal since she cooks so many things I love but can't quite seem to duplicate though I am trying to learn. Her cheese straws, potato salad, meatloaf and yorkshire pudding come immediately to mind. Christmas 2007 I cooked a fresh ham and a turkey with all the trimmings for my kids,my fiance' and his family. Scorched a chuck roast that I tried in the pressure cooker. The same night I ruined an entire pot of mashed potatoes which I make all the time because I was trying to hurry. This meal was absolutely terrible!
