<p>Full time Husband and Full time Daddy. Don't get a chance to do much cooking, but I love to bake and can and am really enjoying that. I look for any new recipes I can and love to experiment with cooking with new flavors and such. My all time favorite cook book is the one I am in the process of putting together. I have been cooking since I was 5, too many years ago to count.......</p>
