I am a single mom of 3 children; only 1 still lives at home. My oldest son is 24, my 2nd son is 22 and my daughter is 17. I discovered the passion for cooking about 10 years ago. I love to cook pasta dishes. I am 100% Dutch and my families cooking traditions, unfortunately, are very bland! So I am breaking alot of traditions and adding spice to my life!!! I made this awesome lady finger truffle that actually turned out like it was pictured and tasted awesome. When you experiment and you have no one to really learn from cooking tragedies do happen. I can't remember anything specific that is tramatic to me, thank goodness.
