My name is Katrina. I'm 22 and a stay at home mother and wife and daycare provider. I have one little girl who's 3 Araya and one boy Patrick, who is 22..oops! J/K -That's my husband :) I am an artist and self proclaimed dancer. I love food and exploring new recipes and flavors! I've only recently (withing the last 4 years) really started to consistently cook. Because now I have the means and people to do so for! But I have always loved it, I grew up doing it with my dad and my mom. Me and my husband are currently buying our first house and I am excited to have the counter space!!!
