I have been a hairstylist for 19 years and have been married for 7 years. We have a 5 year old daughter and a new baby boy, born 1/09. pasta dishes, party food, and just about anything new. My late grandmother was an unbelievable cook. Unfortunately, we have a hard time recreating some of our favorite dishes that she made because she never measured anything, and never used a formal recipe! I print out my favorite recipes and write down any changes I make. I keep them all in a clear covered notebook, so that I can follow a recipe without getting food on it. I love to entertain, so any time that I have a party, I am always looking for the best rated recipes on this site. I also take the time to read others reviews. I never go wrong this way. Everyone always asks for one of my recipes. trying to bake anything with Splenda. It always comes out awful for me!
