It's about time that I updated my profile! It's been quite a long time. I am 31 years old, born and raised here iun Cincinnati, OH. I am engaged to be married to a wonderful man. We have 3 children- minus the bun in the oven :) I have always loved to cook. I was always an overweight child, but decided it was time for a change when I turned 19. I went from 360 lbs to 145 now... well maybe 150 now, lol! Most of my recipes are a healthy spin on family faves, no one wants to eat what dosent look and taste delicious, right? Looking forward to trying more of your great recipes, and hope that you try some of mine..!
