I am the mom of 2 beautiful girls. One had surgery as an infant so I am always looking for high calorie very nutritious meals. My husband and I came from different culinary backrounds. He loves a fine 7 course meal, I make a wicked mac and cheese. Since then I have come a long way and not nearly as intimitated as I was by his viking stove.
