I'm a stay-at-home mother who loves to cook. I try to stay pretty active -- especially since I have 2 young boys and a baby girl. I love using my church's monthly pot-luck lunch as a testing ground for new recipes. I love American Test Kitchen's, Weight Watchers, Cooking Light, & Prevention cookbooks. I have an enormous pile of recipes from magazines I want to try someday.
