Busy mom of 2 kids who also operates a full-time business from home. I like to cook but don't often find the time. I prefer recipes that take 30 minutes or less, but some things you just can't rush ... and they're usually the best recipes to try! I love sweets but sweets don't love me. I smell chocolate, I gain 5 pounds. I don't bake often, but when I do, it's definitely cinnamon rolls or banana nut bread. Around the holidays, I love to make homemade candies and fudge, too. So far, it's just been the annual fudge-fest at the holidays, but as the kids grow older, we'll be adding on, I'm sure. Pan-Seared Ginger Chicken w/ Thai Peanut Sauce and Snowpeas ... 'nuff said. I don't "do" Chinese or Asian. So this was truly a triumph. I also make a mean Shepard's Pie (recipe being added to AllRecipes shortly!). According to my hubby, it's my pork chops. Period. I'm still working on pork chops. Maybe I'll find a good recipe here.
