I the happy mom of 3 young children 7, 5, & 3, and happy wife of 14 years. I used to feel like an expert cook - since my daughter's diagnosis of Celiac Disease I am relearning how to feed my family and entertain without wheat, rye, barley, oats & anything made with them. It's a bit of a challenge, but one that I am learning to love. Food should be a pleasure, not a chore.
My favorite things to cook
Since my daughter's diagnosis of Celiac disease I cook almost exclusively gluten free.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Chicken parm - just like my mom made
Swedish pancakes
My cooking triumphs
Sit down Christmas dinner for 20: Beef wellington & all the trimmings
My cooking tragedies
Chicken curry for my hubby (then boyfriend).
