HEAVEN I'M IN HEAVEN! That is the song that came to mind when I found this great website, I've spent hours here! I love to cook and try new recipes. I live in Jackson, NJ, have been married for 30 years and I have a beautiful 17 yr old daughter. Daina brightens everyday of my life, we are true friends. LOVE MY ANIMALS!! I learned to cook early in life, being the oldest girl of 7 children. I love cooking, and am accustomed to making alot of food. That's not so easy when you are cooking for only 3 people, so I try to make meals that I can freeze, or induldge in left overs..
