I am married with 4 Children. I have a 16 year old son, twin sons that are 11 and a little princess, she is will be 6 this month. I love to cook and I love to cook new things, and to experience all cultures and all foods. I love being a mom and a wife. I also work part time as a developmental specialist in a group home. I Love to cook anything and everything. I especially to cook and eat foods I have never had before, or recipes I have never had before. I just got my very first pressure cooker and am anxious to find some recipes for this. If you have any favorites I would love to try some~~smiles~~~ I don't really have a cooking tradition. Well it is a family tradition I guess to drink a beer while cooking dinner, hehe, My mom and my grandma did... I did for a while until I had to keep check on my weight and start eating more healthy, I have noticed that with age comes wisdom and also comes with slower metabolism~~~smiles~~~ I have always said when I see all six of us eating at the dinner table and all of us eating the same exact foods that is a triumph to me!!! Oh my goodness, I have to many to fit in this box, but I have always said that you have to have tragedies to have successes, Life is a HUGE blank canvas and it comes with an endless eraser to take away mistakes and replace with better~~~~
