<p>I'm a pretty busy gal. I've got a wonderful husband and two little girls. We share our home with wonderful dogs, two Weimaraners, a Boxer and a French Bulldog. I work full-time outside of the home and then come home to tons of hobbies, one of them being cooking. <br />I love baking and really want to get better at it. I'm also hoping to get more organized during dinner time so I'm not at a loss when it gets to be dinner time. <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></p>
