I met my husband at 12, we had our son at 16 and married at 18 in '93. My family is the most important thing to me - 2nd is Tiffany's.
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake. I usually do not cook but I have been lately and so far so good. You throw me in front of my kitchenaid - give me some flour, sugar, eggs - you'll have a masterpiece... sometimes!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every christmas I bake pecan pies, lemon bars - you name it - we have it and my co-workers love it.
My cooking triumphs
I enjoy cooking now. I grew up in a family that didn't cook - we always ate out. My poor husband couldn't figure out what in the world happened to me - he enjoys cooking. For some reason, I enjoy cooking now - finding low-fat foods and cooking healthy for my family. They deserve the best food.
My cooking tragedies
I used to burn everything (except when I bake). Recently I helped my son bake a pecan pie - we forgot to take the lining out. Couldn't believe I did that...
