I plan parties for other people as well as for me and my husband. I love to throw theme parties. Used to work in the mortgage banking industry for 20 years. Anything that is good, different but healthy at the same time. Like to incorprate dishes from all continents for a variety. Thanksgiving dinner. I cook all things like my Mom used to when we were growning up. It's all still as great as she used to do it. Making my own tomato sauce from home grown tomatos (that my husband grows). I have people requesting that I make them spaghetti just so they can have my sauce. I can it so it keeps throughout the year. When I was married the firt time at age 22, I didn't know how to cook anything. I was pretty bad. But I learned on my own thru the years.
