Wife and mom of three girls. Love to cook and will try different foods at home with family anytime. If it is not good, we just throw it out, order a pizza and try again next time. Like to spend time outside with family and dog too and can't wait for spring so the ground dries out and we can resume outdoor activities. Will soon be time to put out the garden. Anything my kids will eat. They are pretty brave and will try almost anything once. They have eaten things that I never thought they would like Tabouleh, Raw and Cooked Sushi, all sorts of curries and even Spinach. My youngest begs for my creamed spinach at least once a week. My grandmother and mother always "made" me help in the kitchen when I was young. I have done the same thing and my oldest daughter has been cooking since she was 3. She is a teenager now and will choose a recipe and take off with it. All three kids love to help with meals and are very creative and make really good suggestions about spices and substitutions on recipes.We make a day of going to a farmer's market and choosing vegetables and taking turns coming up with new ways to cook them. Even their dad gets in on that one. Getting everyone to the table is always a triumph. Between track and chorus and my husband's work and my work it seems like we are going 100 different directions some days. I have not burned down our house (yet) so that is pretty good I think. Got busy one time while I was cooking a banana pudding and forgot the sugar. Then forgot to taste it because I was rushed. Imagine my husband's surprise when he dug in and had to figure out what in the world I was trying to feed him. He has never let me live that one down. He always asks if I will make a banana pudding with sugar in it for him.
