I grew up just outside of Seattle, WA and love the Pacific Northwest! I have 5 wonderful children with a wide range of ages (oldest born in 1984 youngest born in 2000). I am a breeder of German Shepherd dogs (working lines), love to write, and love being with family and friends! I have spent many years learning to cook food for my family which will serve them well both in taste appeal and nutrition...not always a easy goal with so many opinions and so many ages! "This is not a restaurant!" was often heard in defense of meals and to give assurance that only one meal would be served to those sitting at the table...no catering!
I love to cook comfort foods the best. Seeing my loved ones sit down together, smiling and sharing our day, knowing that the dish set before them will be well received...that is satisfaction! Macaroni and Cheese, Eggchiladas, and home made soups are my specialties. I enjoy Italian, Oriental, and American cuisine. I love to try new dishes from other cultures or dishes that were served by our grandmothers for generations.
