I am a full time mom. I have three children. A 6 year old, a 4 year old and a 1 year old. They keep me very busy. I am trying to cook healthy things for my family. I have drastically changed the way we eat. Healthy foods can change your life. I lost 50 lbs. in 5 months, just by changing the way I eat. I love sharing my healthy variations to traditional recipes. We always host Christmas brunch with our close family. I have been doing this since the first year my husband and I were married. I made a lemon meringue pie and actually had the meringue turn out the way it is supposed to. I just finished compiling 150 cookbooks for our church with recipes submitted by the congregation. When I was 12 years old I decided to make chorn chowder without any help. The recipe called for 1/2 cup of celery, not having any, I substituted 1/2 cup of celery seed. No one ate much chowder that night
