I have the prelivige of living in the Wonderful Willamette Valley in Oregon. This gives our family the opportunity to pick/harvest and eat some of the tasty fruit and vetagetables around. I am the proud mother of two wonderful children;10 and 6. I enjoying the aspect of my job as a teacher when working with students but really dislike the paperwork that goes along with special education. I love the idea of just closing the door and not having to deal with adults. Just hang out with kids and learn as well as teach them the magic of learning. My own two are forever reminding me of it.
I grew up never really knowing what bad cooking was as my mother is the best cook around. She grew up outside of New Orleans but her married life has been spent out west so our tastes are varied. I grew up and have raised our children on coffee milk at age 2, grits and lots of See's chocolate.
I don't know really when I got into to cooking so much but I try to use one new recipe a week. I spend about 1 hour a week making my menu for the next week as I am sitting down with cookbooks or magazines looking for recipes. Luckily my family doesn't mind trying new foods. I fell into Recipezaar by accident last August and have loved it ever since.
I love desserts, camping food over the fire and cooking with and for friends and family. Pretty much like everyone else at Zaar.
