about me

I am a St. Louis girl through and through. I am a stay at home mom of three, married to my high school sweetie for the last 19 years. I have a wonderful 12 y/o son who loves to cook with me and I am excited to pass along my recipes and cooking traditions to him as well as to his sister and brother.

The picture above is of me and my sweet doggie, Angel. I hate that picture of me, but love that I am with Angel. She is a rescue dog, who was born to a stray on the streets of St. Louis. She is the sweetest, most loving, loyal dog I have ever known. She is a Basenji mix.

One of the favorite activities is being a troop leader for m daughter's Girl Scout troop. I have been involved in one capacity or another with Girl Scouts since I was a Girl Scout and I love the organization. My daughter is a Cadette and is part of a wonderful troop of girls. I grew up as a Girl Scout and now I get to watch as my daughter and her friends enjoy some of the same traditions as I did and many, many new adventures that have come along since my days as a scout.
My two boys are also in scouts, my 12 y/o DS is a Boy Scout and my 8 y/o DS is a Cub Scout.

I collect "hometown" type/fundraiser cookbooks and love trying other people's family recipes. I love learning ethnic recipes from people who come from the culture. I have a friend who is from the Philipines and she has taught me to make wonderful eggrolls, lumpia and pancit. They are so good and I love the chance to share what I have learned. I have also learned to make tamales from a friend from Mexico.


I am a dedicated advocate for people who have disabilities. Prior to having my own children I worked in the field of disabilities and then God blessed me with my youngest son, who has Cerebral Palsy.

Favorite Foods:

My idea of heaven is Thanksgiving Day. I love cooking BIG.

Baking with yeast is a passion of mine. As I worked and helped support my husband through college, I promised myself that once I got to be a stay at home mom that I would try a new kind of yeast bread every week. I have stopped that since then, but still bake with yeast a couple of times a week.

Our family does a major production of cookie baking each year at Christmas. I have also started adding candy making to the repitoire. We give trays and tins of cookies to friends, family and neighbors.
