"I found this recipe at my local grocery and tried it. I think the cod tastes the same as cod normally tastes, but the sauce is fantastic. My kids don't like the ingredients that are in the sauce, so I made sure that their cod was finished cooking the first time and didn't put them back into the sauce to continue cooking. Hope you enjoy."

About me???? Okay. I have a husband, 2 kids and a lizard. Not happy about the lizard, either. I am recently going back to work after more than 10 years as a stay-at-home mom/wife. I've found that with the kids busy all of the time, it is time for me to get back out in the world and speak with adults. I love to read, right now I'm on a memoir kick. I just recently read "Glass Castle" which was great and am now reading "Black Boy" which is listed as one of the top 100 non-fiction books. I basically like anything with an "artsy" flair to it. In addition, I work out/run/pilates/weight-lift/whatever, on a regular basis. It has been a lifelong habit for me and so now if I don't do these things I feel as though my day is incomplete. I guess that is good because it helps offset my other favorite thing which is going out to eat. My husband and I have recently found Indian food. Love the way it tastes, hate the way it looks. Not very healthy, either, so the exercising comes in handy. We also love to attend the kids sporting events and school functions. What proud moments for us parents.
