Hello! My name is Kimberley. I'm 29 years old and a wife and mother of seven!. I love to cook just as much as I love to eat. Or the other way around. Every time I cook, I learn something new. I started to love cooking because it is fun ,challenging, and creative. Most importantly, delicious! Allrecipes has been a goldmine of good food and fun for me and my family for several years now.
My favorite things to cook
I have fallen in love with healthy cooking and have been remaking all of my favorite meals and recipes. I use as many whole grains and healthy fats in place of the traditonal white flour and suagr. You'll find alot of my submitted or personal recipes are my healthy versions of the foods I love to eat and love to feed my huge family!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My recent tradition I have added to my family is two healthy snacks a day. This has been a lot of fun! I include my children in most of the snack choosing and making! The best part is that if the food we make is something new because they helped make it they can't wait to eat it! It's been wonderful watching my little ones enjoying good healthy food!
My cooking triumphs
I have recently found a passion for baking and decorating cakes! I have made very speical cake for all my kids birthdays and may other family. I love to see everyones faces when they get a unique cake!
My cooking tragedies
One Thanksgiving I decited to make up all the pie crust in one big batch. after my pies were finished baking I tried a bite and YUCK the crust was hard and salty!! Never do more than a double crust recipe at a time.
