I am a speech pathologist and mother of 3. I love cooking gourmet meals. Luckily my husband doesn't mind being my guinea pig and he usually likes it all. My dad was the family cook and he taught me to love cooking as well. I am passing it on to my daughter. She makes a mean meatloaf. As a child, I mostly baked desserts to impress my dad. Now that I have a family, I spend most of my time trying new meals to get my children to expand their horizons. I have really improved over the past few years. I like being able to make meals for friends and family. I can NOT cook a perfect grilled cheese. One side is always black and my oldest daughter asked, "Do you like them like that?" That's all she knows! :)
