RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in beautiful sunny San Diego with my husband and two wonderful daughters who are 13 (yikes) and 3. I've always cooked but for some reason never really enjoyed it until a few years ago. I'm not sure what changed but now I love it. I'm addicted to this website and The Food Network is always on my tv. My baby loves to "cook" with me and is always by my side in the kitchen. :-) I enjoy finding new recipes and testing them out on the family. My husband likes just about everything except beans, but the kids are sometimes a bit harder to please. In the summer I like to make as much outside on the grill as possible and once winter rolls around I do a lot of baking and love to make soups.
