I have two boys Eddie 18 and Brandon 10. I have been with my hubby for 16 years. I work full time outside the home and my boys keep me busy at home. Eddie is a singer and base guitar player in a band and Brandon races go karts. We also have a Collie/Beagle mix named Sugar.

I love to cook and try out new recipes. My family likes it too but at times ask my to make just "normal" food, as I forget sometimes to make my own TNT recipes.

I cook a lot with with my crock pot as it makes life a lot easier for me. I am always on the look out for new crock pot recipes.

I'm not much of a baker as I don't like to measure things.

I collect cookbooks and recipes in general. I usually start with a recipe and tweak to my families liking.

My Rating System:

5 Stars = The whole family enjoyed the dish and it will be added to my TNT cookbook. TNT- 5 Star. These recipes will be made again and again.

4 Stars = Recipe was good, but needed some modifications or it was good but not something we would want on a regular basis. Also goes into my TNT-4 star recipe cookbook. TNT- 4 Stars

3 Stars = It was edible, but won't be made again.

2 Stars = Needs some kind of major adjustments.

1 Stars = Inedible, didn't work, waste of ingredients.
