SAHM Two kids, husband, dog, three cats. Food=love. That's what I learned early on. People in my family were happier when there was a big to-do. Food played a big role in that. Baking is my favorite. I get giddy with holiday baking. Just thinking about it. :-) I LOVE to make homemade soup. Italian Chicken is the best. I got it from a "Taste of Home" mag. Tastes like something from a fancy restaurant. Eye of Round roast with spinach/cheese/prosciutto mixture stuffed in the middle. It's from a 2004? Rachel Ray show. SO good. And relatively easy and actually fun. In 1987 I tried to make Spanish Rice (how hard can that be?-lol). To make a long story short, I kid you not, our dog wouldn't even eat it! Pretty funny though.
