I love to cook! One side of my family is Scandinavian and I got my love of baking from them. I would bake everyday if I could! The other side of my family is Italian and always in the kitchen cooking something up.
I am an Insurance Agent and love to help people. Almost everything I bake is given away, after a little sample of course!
The first 20 years of my life I didn't have any food allergies. Then I became lactose intolerant. So I'm always looking for recipes that satisfy my cravings without the lactose. I always use goat milk in palce of all milk products and it works really well. It has a slight sweet taste, but in baked goods it's not noticable.
