I live in Sultan, WA, but grew up in the mid-west. I'm a wife and mother of two boys.

<br>I love to cook, gardening/landscaping, and decorating. I collect cookbooks and love to look at them for new ideas.

<br>I am trying to write down all of my family's recipes for my children to have someday. I think it's important that family and even regional food traditions are known and passed on to future generations.
