I currently live in Alabma, but have lived many places, including 4 years in Brazil. I love to travel and learn about languages and cultures around the world. I have a husband and two teenaged daughters and we live a very active family life. I work full time as a programmer, so between that and sports and plays and church, I don't have a lot of time to cook. For years I just threw whatever on the table, but lately I've become more aware of what I eat and how I prepare it. I'm trying to stay away from processed foods and cook more from scratch. I've discovered that I love it!
