<p>I've lived in Indiana all of my 51 years. I'm a wife and working mother of two. I enjoy cooking, but probably I enjoy perusing and collecting recipes even more! I'm an avid photographer and I also enjoy hiking, reading, camping, and spending time with my family. I'm a nature lover for sure and have a fondness for animals much to my husband's chagrin and my children's delight!</p>
