about me

I have been a Central Illinois resident all my life.
My hobbies include fishing with my husband, reading, counted cross stitch, and of course, cooking (especially baking)!
I currently work in an office, behind a desk, pushing paper. My dream would be to open my own bakery.
Spending time in the kitchen is very relaxing to me, and it keeps me connected to my domestic side!

Favorite Foods:

I love to bake, especially at Christmas-time. Cookies of all kinds are my specialty, and at Christmas I give them away as gifts to family & friends. I have been known to make 21 different kinds (that was my all-time record last Christmas!)

Update: new personal record for Christmas cookies 2001 — 24 different kinds!
