RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Just added my first child to my family in June 2008. I am learning to be a good mom and homemaker and it is a real challenge, but a great one! I love to cook and try new ideas. I also love the outdoors, travel, live basketball, running, hiking...etc!! I am a southern girl at heart and I love being a housewife.
I love all types of foods and I love to re-make recipes into a more "healthy" versions.
