Hm about me. I'm happily married with three kids. One on her way to college, one on his way to high school, and one on her way to middle school. What keeps me sane with three kids, two of which are girls? I love to bake. Although I rarely eat anything I bake... lol I just love to experiment and doing things the way they were meant to be done decades ago. Nothing is worth doing if it isnt done right I figure.
