I am married and a SAHM of 4 kiddos...I have been a collector of recipes since I was a little girl. When browsing zaar I can not resist clicking on any recipe that is a 'family tradition', 'grandmas', or 'clipped from the paper 30 years ago' and anything that has the word 'lemon' in it. I am trying real hard to incorporate a healthier way of eating into our lives and zaar has been a tremendous tool in accomplishing that. I love trying lots of different recipes on zaar as well as just browsing. One of the things I love about it here is the ability to find first rate recipes that really make an impact on what I make for my family. I have found several recipes that are now becoming a 'tradition' in our home...and I really value them!
