About me
My hubby and I just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary and have six children (five girls and one boy) whose ages are 23,22,19,17,15, and 11! There's never a dull moment in our house and I wouldn't have it any other way! My husband loves to cook, also, and is wonderful at it! We live in northern Illinois near the Wisconsin border. I work in the home health care industry as a home care provider for the elderly. I absolutely love it! It is one of the most rewarding jobs since I have met so many wonderful people!! I entered in that I'm an "expert" cook, but that makes me sound like I'm a food snob...haha... Let's just say I've been cooking since I was old enough to stand on a step-stool helping my mom! I have inherited my mom's love for cooking and baking and am so thankful that my own children share that love! My favorite foods to make are desserts. I specialize in cookies, cakes, cheesecakes, and specialty desserts, but I love to make a wide variety of other foods as well. I'm so excited to share my recipes and learn of the many recipes on this site that are waiting for me to discover! I've already "met" many cooking buddies who have the most amazing recipes in their collections. It's great to read about the many similarities that we share!
