I am a wife, mother, grandmother, writer, and editor. I like to cook quick and easy dinners for my husband and myself on weeknights. On weekends and holidays, I sometimes enjoy cooking more complicated recipes and especially trying new things. I love to cook the traditional holiday meals my mother always made, especially turkey and all the trimmings for Thanksgiving. My mother's giblet gravy is the best. Every time I cook a meal that makes people happy, it is a triumph to me. I especially love making delicious healthy recipes. I once accidentally substituted salt for cake in a chocolate cake recipe. It tasted sort of like play-dough.
