I live in a quaint little town about 2hrs from Ottawa with my husband of 1 yr. We're expecting our first child near the end of Dec '05 and couldn't be happier. I love to bake -- though my (pre-preggo) waistline doesn't seem to agree. I grew up with my father making cooking a meal and entire event, the whole family was involved in the preparation and, of course, the consuming! The first time I had a successful flambe!! Never mind the fact that my husband joked he smelled burned hair -- it was very very cool. When I tried to make pizza at 8 yrs old -- we were out of cheese so I used Cheese Whiz and frozen peas (a pizza must have veggies). It was horrible and even the dog wouldn't eat it.
