<p>Hi there, my name is Stephanie. I live in College Station, TX and I attend Texas A&amp;M University. My major is Mathematics with a minor in English. I've just discovered my love for cooking over the past year. I want to know anything and everything there is about cooking but I am still a beginner cook and have LOTS to learn! <br /> <br />I enjoy cooking, traveling, trying new restaurants, listening to music, country and western dancing and many other things. I have two cats named Patches and Ashley whom I absolutely love to death. They are literally the best friends I've ever had...if anyone wants to share stories about the crazy things their cats have done I would be more than happy to swap stories! <br /> <br /><img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg" alt="" /> <br /><img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/345380/xmaspatches.jpg" alt="" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/345380/ashley.jpg" alt="" /></p>
