RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in the northeastern US I am a stay at home mom. My kids are 11, 9, 3.5, and 1.5 My hubby is back from his 3 month internship in MA. We all went to see Boston, for some reason the people of MA don't feel the need to post rout markers on their highways. I am accustomed to knowing every 10th of a mile what highway I am on and where on it I am. Thank goodness for audio books, but if I ever have to listen to Charlie and the Chocolate factory again I may do Eric Idle some form of spam induced harm. (Just kidding don't turn me in to the men in white coats yet.) I used to say that I have too many favorite cook books to list, but now I will have to say that Recipezaar is my favorite cookbook. We have implemented a rule at the book store, we cannot buy another cook book until we make at least one thing from the last one we bought. I would love to move somewhere truly interesting, or at least to travel. Don't get me started on my pet peeves. I have removed them because they were too grouchy, I really am a happy person so lets just say I think people need to think more, have more self respect, more respect and responsibility to others and to dress and behave like civilized people should. Also if you live in a big city, please let people merge on the highway.
