My name is Valerie and I live in Iowa. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 3 yrs. Currently I'm a stay at home wife and I love to cook and eat. Most of my cooking is low fat and also gluten free due to digestive issues. My husband is always saying who needs take out when Val is cooking.
I always like to experiment and try new ideas with cooking. Its fun
