Hi there. :)
What a great site!
I am 36 and have been married 15 years.
I'm a stay at home mom with two busy children who are like night and day. One eats everything and the other is extremely picky.
Just about everything I've learned about cooking and baking has been tought to me by my sister Gayle who is a fantastic cook. :)
I have a couple favorite cookbooks I use, the "Joy of Cooking" and Betty Crocker's
"New Cookbook-Everything you need to know to cook." They've both been very helpful.
