I'm a Mother/Baby RN working in Tacoma, Wa. on the night shift. I have been married 9years and we have 5 children together, the youngest 3 still live at home and they are 12, 8, and 4. My husband gets to be the stay at home dad and I get to do all the cooking! I do love to cook on my off days and working 12 hr. shifts means my kids and hubby are "on their own" for 3 days a week!
My favorite things to cook
I lOVE pasta, pizza, steaks, sea food, and i lOVE to try new recipes out! I love my slow cooker for making chili and stew/roasts, even for making barbeque ribs or roasts. I really LOVE chowder be it corn or clam and home made chowder is the best! Pizza's are really fun to make and you can be really creative! Of course you got to have deserts and i LOVE anything Cheesecake!
My favorite family cooking traditions
I'm got to make my Crock Pot Stuffing for Thanksgiving, its better then ANY boxed stuffing or any other stuffing i've ever had!
My cooking triumphs
I LOVE my Savory Fetta Meat pies, they are to DIE for! My kids are always asking for those!
My cooking tragedies
Trying to make spinich artichoke dip, it came out SOOOOOO super greasy, it was virtually unedible.
