about me

The adorable boy pictured on my page is our only grandson Donal. He was named to honor my grandfather. (It is pronounced Donald without the last d.)

The above photo was taken on a warm spring day after Donal & his papa were in charge of the morning's wardrobe. =)

This tiny boy is the light of our lives and all boy. He is joy in a small package, says please and I love you which melts my heart, and has a great sense of humor.
He recently changed our names to meema & papa. I hadn't planned on being a meema, prefering something much more elegant, but it is strangely okay. He is now 3 years old.


We spend hours watching him discover the world around him and I take lots of photos of everything he does. Do I sound like a grandma? =)

I am the host of the Contest & Events Forum and a co-host of the To Go: Brown Bag, Camping, Picnic, & Potlucks Forum. I host several events throughout the year. Ready, Set, Cook! is a not so secret passion of mine and I keep the cookbooks for all past rounds of Ready, Set, Cook! You can view all of these wonderful, inventive recipes by viewing my public cookbooks. Pick A Chef is another fun event and I am lucky to be helped with this massive project by some wonderful people. Those cookbooks are also available.

Favorite Foods:

I'll try almost anything.... once. My favorite recipes are eclectic and cover everything from gourmet to comfort food, something that takes all day to quick to fix, and lower fat regulars to high calorie splurges.

I do tend to prefer spicy fare and lemony flavors. My husband is a sport, will try anything I prepare, thank me for making it, and rate the dish with stars since I found zaar. Sadly he isn't as fond of spicy.
