RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am a single mother of two little girls, Adrienne is eight and Alexis is four. I am currently a student at Kaplan University. I take online courses there. My major is Web Design. I love to cook and will try almost anything at least once or twice. I also am an avid reader and play video games. I hate to clean but when I do my kids hide. I am the queen of Clorox clean up. I clean almost everything with it as long as it doesn't mess up the color. My favorite colors are blues, mostly aqua, pink, grey, browns and black. My kitchen is red & white, bedroom is muted gold and beige and the rest of the house is black, beige and tan, with the exception of my daughters' room (pink...lots and lots of pink)
