"This is my mother's recipe and I have always loved it. Quick and easy to prepare. When I don't have time to make my own lemon filling, I prefer Jello lemon pudding and pie filling (the kind you cook, NOT the instant)."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I was born in Canada, lived on Cape Cod for 13 years and then moved to Florida. While in Florida I met my wonderful German husband and moved to Germany after just knowing him for 2 weeks. We have been together now for over 20 years. I am very lucky with him, as I love to cook and he loves to eat! I enjoy trying new recipes out on friends.
My particular passion, apart from cooking, is running. I only started running about 3 years ago and am not very fast, but can't imagine my life without this sport.
We both enjoy travelling, jogging, reading and cooking. We are also wine lovers and living in Germany there are lots of wine festivals - which include food galore - to attend. We love trying the local dishes and wines in the countries we travel to.
We have an adorable 12 year old granddaughter (from my husbands first marriage) who loves to bake "American" muffins with me.
