I am a mom of 2 for now...2 boys to be exact. They are Zachary- age 3 1/2 years, and Jayden- age 11 months. We are expecting our little girl in March. So, as you can probably guess we are busy busy busy in this house, and need to make alot of quick meals. My dad is a chef, so I still have to sneak in some good stuff as much as possible. UPDATE: ROZELYNN ANNE MARIE BORN MARCH 17TH, 2006!! I am a slow cooker fanatic, but really don't care for the fat. I love to make vegetable dishes and everything colorful. I used to be a real spice freak but now its much more about the flavor. My family was VERY into mexican foods such as tacos and enchiladas, but they were definately steak and potato people. My whole family is really food loving, which is probably where I got my love for cooking. I guess that would be my first homemade apple pie. I even took a picture on my digital, it was absolutely perfect...and I created the recipe myself!! I was making enchiladas once and turned over the ceyenne pepper thinking it was going to sprinkle out and it dumped into the pan, and I tried to scrape as much out as possible and still save the meal, since we had 12 people coming for a big dinner!!! Well needless to say, we had 12 HUNGRY people for dinner, and I felt HORRRIBLE!
