RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Even though I am still young (25) Life experince has aged me alot.
I learned to cook at both of my grandmother's knees (One southern American, one southern Irish) when I was about five. By ten I started collecting cookbooks and experinmenting on my own.
As a latch key kid I cooked for my four younger brothers and sisters.
My mom ran a small deli before she died when I was 17 so alot of my recies debuted there.
Now I run my own catering Buisness.
I am married to a wnderful man for five years now. I am a six year old daughter, sons who are four and three.
We are also raising my 14 year old sister and nine Year old stepsister and have a 16 year old foster daughter, all of which love cooking with me.
I am writing a cookbook with the hopes that when I pass I can leave my recipes for them
My cookbook collection has now reached over 1200.
Thank you for trying and reviewing my recipes..
