Hi, my friends all call me Zero. I'm a 39 year old stay at home Dad. I'm recently disable through an accedent that has left my foot incapacitated. So now I get to stay home all day and create wonderful dishes for my lovely wife and kids. It's not all that bad staying home, I just wished the laundry folded itself...LOL
