RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in NJ and work for a fun candy company. I love to cook and I often whip things up in my head on the way home from work. I try to keep it healthy, using lower fat/calorie alternatives without sacrificing on taste. I'd have to say my favorite cookbook is the one I've compiled myself with recipes from various magazines, family/friends, and this wonderful website!! In my free time I love to play golf, eat, drink and be merry!
