My favorites are any seafood, chicken dishes, veggies and salads. I do have a weakness for any kind of bread and have perfected many bread recipes over the years. My husband will eat anything I make so he's easy to cook for.


I live in Washington State. I am a Personnel Manager for a local title insurance company. I'm fortunate to have my one of my sisters working with me also!
My husband and I have have been together since high school and have been married 32 (2009) years and we are still in love! Our daughter and son are grown and on their own. Our son was just recently married to a wonderful girl from Louisiana. We will be traveling to Louisiana for Thanksgiving (2008) this year, can't wait to try the Southern cuisine!
We are now grandparents. Our first grandchild was born on May 7th, a beautiful baby boy. It's brought so much more happiness to our lives.
When I was first married I made everything by scratch and still do most of the time! Got that from my mother who was a wonderful cook. She raised four daughters (with dad!), had a garden every year, sewed many of our clothes, made dinner every night and in her spare time had a 35 year career in management. A truly inspiring women that our family misses each and every day.
Spent 18 years with a women's non-profit group. We raised money by catering to help support local and national charities. Our special project each year was for St. Jude's Childrens Hospital.
We spend a lot of our free time with the kids and cooking is almost always on the agenda. My husband and I enjoy taking trips and entering car shows with our restored 63 SS Nova. Now that it's just the two of us I tend to cook larger meals on the weekends and simpler ones during the work week.
I'm addicted to Zaar! I use recipes from it at least a few times a week and can't say how many times I've recommended it to others. It's fun to read about the other members likes/dislikes and to read their reviews. I've only have one recipe that I didn't like, that's a pretty good percentage.
Favorite Foods:
When we travel we like to try new restaurants preferably not chain restaurants.
