I'm a stay at home mom of 3 kids under the age of 8. I like trying out new recipes at least once a week. I enjoy sneaking in healthy foods/ingredients without the fam knowing! I enjoy cooking just about anything...ahh, who am I kidding? My favorite thing to make is homemade cheesecakes, brownies, and cookies. My family is a big pasta eatin' family. And when we're not having pasta, we're having some kind of mexican food, and most recently chinese/asian food. I really like quick, easy recipes. Around Christmas my family of 5 will gather in the kitchen and make/decorate cookies. My kids like to search allrecipes.com for new yummy dishes to help me prepare. When dh and I got together, I didn't know my way around the kitchen. I couldn't even prepare hamburger helper without something going wrong! 3 kids and 14 years later, I'm a new woman in the kitchen! :) I've had so many of these it's not even funny. Sometimes trying out those new recipes don't pay off in the end because no one likes it. But, that is one thing about food, if it doesn't turn out well give it to the dog and order out!
