I'm a SAHM to two great children, ages 4 and 2.
My favorite things to cook
My husband loves Italian, and I love to make it for him! I also enjoy experimenting with vegetables to increase the healthy quotient in our meals. I've also been making homemade bread in the bread machine a great deal instead of buying it, packed with preservatives and twice the price, at the grocery store.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My family has a special recipe for Swedish meatballs which we make EVERY Christmas. We also make Swedish Coffee bread for Christmas morning (mmm-mmm!).
My cooking tragedies
When I was first married, I bought a roaster chicken, intending to cook it in the crock pot. I took it out of the bag and it so closely resembled the original chicken that I became almost ill. I gave the chicken to our neighbor to cook and enjoy.
