I am a stay-at-home mom living in Northeast Minneapolis with my husband, beautiful daughter, and two doberman-shepherds. My passion is for "all things natural." I love hiking, camping, gardening, playing with my daughter and my dogs, as well as my husband : ), and creating wonderful meals from healthy, organic ingredients. My favorite cookbook is “How to Cook Everything” by Mark Bittman. It was a great beginner’s book for me. It provides plenty of great recipes but, more importantly, highlights the basic principles of working with nearly any ingredient you can think of- from buying and storing fruits and veggies, to carving a turkey. Pet Peeves? Going through the express lane with too many items. This may seem like a small thing, but everything we do affects everyone else... so smile! : )
