I have been a stay at home mom for the last 7 years and have just re-entered the work force. I am now a unit clerk at a hospital. I love my new job and find it very challenging(reading doctor's handwriting) and rewarding. I love to scrapbook and make homemade gifts. I read cookbooks like novels and love to try new recipes. My husband gets so mad at me sometimes because I wont just cook the same old same old. I tell him we wouldn't have those regulars if I hadn't tried the recipes. I love all recipes because we can check the ratings to see if the recipe has worked for others. I love to make crock pot recipes and quick and easy things. Also things that don't require a ton of ingreadients. I also love a mexican theme dinner. I have lots of differant mexican recipes that my family loves. Our big tradition is Chex Mix at christmas time. Other than that I like to mix it up. I know I have found a good one if my husband goes back for seconds and thirds. If my picky daughter loves it we know we have a winner. I can not make gravy.
