RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in northern California and I am the sales manager for a local retail store. I am happily married with two wonderful sons; my oldest is serving our country in the United States Marines and is now in Djibouti Africa. The other is still at home and my wonderful handful. I have recently become a mother in law as my oldest married before he left the country. I also have two cats which thing they are more human then feline, and we have tropical fish. So now I look forward to becoming a grandma (but not real soon) I love camping and reading and cooking I used to own a bakery with my mother (rest her soul) but I don’t get a chance to cook much because of my work schedule. I am always on the hunt for good low cal low fat tasty dishes and things I can make ahead of time. Foods I love CHOCOLATE…. Ok ok I know not a food group per say…. But it should be. Alright I just love food. I love to try new things and flavors. My passions I guess you could say are cooking a good meal and having tons of family and friend around to enjoy it. My peeves people who lie and cheat.
