RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm 28, married and I have a very time-consuming job as ground staff at the U.K's largest airport outside London. I Love to bake, ever since I was a little nipper. I used to help (or should i say make a mess) my nan at every opportunity. The good thing now is I get try out any new recipes on my husband!! Whether it be sweets or savouries I'll give it a go. I like collecting the magazines from the supermarket as they always hide a treasure of recipe somewhere. Recently, I have been doing some baking with a friend of mine round her house and were doing something right if 6 children wonder when I'm going to visit! <a href="http://www.glitter-graphics.com"><img src="http://dl9.glitter-graphics.net/pub/152/152179h4qroi8q2b.gif" width=400 height=50 border=0></a><a href="http://www.glitter-works.org" target=_blank></a> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"><img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i25/bayhill/Zaar%20Icons%20and%20Greetings/gs2009jane.jpg"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"> I have a very sweet tooth..........lol.
