I live in south texas and own an interior decorating firm. we cook for fun with friends and family. my favorite recipes are the ones received from friends. we have a nice garden so we get eat alot of fresh veggies and herbs all year round. I am also a golf-wife so I have taken up hobbies in self defense. I love to exercise, garden, paint, & sew. My darling hubby was my HS sweetheart but we didn't marry until we had 3 other marriages & 4 children between us.
