about me

When I got married in March 2004, I quickly discovered that I love to cook! With very few mishaps, I don't think I made the same recipe twice in the first six months!! Discovering Recipezaar was great; it's so easy to find the exact kind of recipe I'm looking for. We also moved in next door to a wonderful 87 year old lady who cooks like a pro, and I could always go ask her my cooking questions!
We are trying to eliminate a lot of the cancer- and disease-causing additives in our diet by juicing a lot of fresh produce and eating less prepared foods. I have made my own cream of chicken soup, barbecue sauce, mayonnaise, and more! It takes extra time but we see improvement in our health and well-being. I try to utilize a tasty vegetarian dish at least once a week as well, and have lately been experimenting with altering recipes to lower the fat content. I have a subscription to Taste of Home's Light and Tasty magazine, which always has tried-and-true recipes on the healthy side.
Cooking and taking care of my house and husband :~) is my first priority, but I also work part time as a preschool teacher in a class of 3 year-olds! We have a great time- every day is a little different! And it is super training for having my own children someday (soon)!

Favorite Foods:

My husband says he married a real chef and is a very good sport about me trying new recipes. (Which I do several times a week!) But every once in awhile he will beg me for boxed, frozen pizza... go figure! I love cooking for him, and he mostly prefers to eat healthy so I like to find tasty low-fat recipes for us.
I on the other hand like ice cream, brownies, and ice cream with brownies...!
