I am the mother of two children, one is special needs. I also care for children in my home. I am attending college to complete my education in behavior management for autism disorders. I teach knitting at the local community college. I love cooking with my son and anything desserty. I have a big sweet tooth. My favorite thing to make is my great grandmother's meat stuffing. Before christmas we cook a ton of things from main courses to desserts. My favorite is my grandmother's almond christmas cookies. It is a two day process because the cookies need to completely cook before decorating. I finally mastered my great grandmother's meat stuffing. Also, I have become somewhat of a professional slow cooker! When I was younger, I attempted to make fudge and somehow turned it into tootsie roles! I still have no clue how I managed it. It wasn't too bad though.
