RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am married with three boys. We live in Japan, where my husband teaches English and works in a church. I homeschool my oldest son and have a newborn, so I don't have much time to play with new recipes, but I will share them when I do come up with one. I do have a cookbook called the Everything Cookbook, that I use every week or so...it is great. I love play music and reading - not that I have much of the chance to do either. I hate a dirty house and will jump at the chance to re-organize it.
