RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I just love to cook and collect lots of recipes! I find myself most comfortable in a kitchen. When I'm stressed, that's where I head, cooking and baking in the kitchen! I am married with two small kids.
My husband and I are houseparents for a group home in Iowa. We work 24/7 as "parents" for troubled teenagers, making the home a family for these kids who don't really have one. We live where we work and have really enjoyed it.
