Love to cook for my family and friends.
My husband is a diabetic and we are interested in healthy eating. My best dish
is Sweet and Sour Pork. Time consuming
but OH so yummy.
My interests are crafting, gardening and sewing. I enjoy making homemade gifts for
birthdays and holidays.
My pet peeves are people who are continually late, negative attitudes,and rude. Life is to be enjoyed, so do onto others as you would want them to do onto you!!!!
