RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I farm with my family on the Canadian Prairies, specifically North Eastern Alberta. I really enjoy cooking, especially the produce I grow myself. We have our own beef, chicken and vegetables. My family humours me by letting me try out new recipes on them but they certainly let me know when it's a flop! My children are starting to learn how to cook (though sometime begrudgingly). ?I also work out of home several days a week as an administrative assistant and I am an active member of my Parish. My interests are crafting, painting, sports, yoga, home decortating, indoor and outdoor gardening, movies and reading.?
