I'm a mother of three and a grandmother of one and a proud owner of three Yorkie dogs. I have been happily married for 14 years. Anything italian!!!! We always have Monkey Bread on Thanksgiving morning. My 8 year old son loves it! We also have seafood feast on Christmas Eve. First place winner in the Northeast Tennessee Tourism's Home Baker's Cookie Challenge and One of Five finalists in the Levy Restaurants/Bristol Motor Speedway Rubbin is Racin contest three years in a row. Also owned a successful catering business for two years. Catered for some very prominent companies. Appeared on a cooking segment for a local daytime tv show and was asked to come back anytime!!!!! As with any cook, I occasionally have recipe failures. No One Ever Sees Them!!!! When I was about ten my mother became very ill and it was then that I started my cooking career. My first tragedy was jello. I didn't read the directions well and I added the hot and then the cold water at the same time. You can imagine the result. LOL
