RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in Carrot River Sk (yes the town is called carrot river) I am a full time mom of three children my son Kaleb who is four, my two daughter's Asia and Vienna- three and two in that order., and our most recent edition a 99'9% siamese kitten named Sander( my son's choice of name). I also work part time. I love looking after my flowers (which i have LOTS of) cross stitching and most outdoor activities i also do some painting and i enjoy baking or cooking. I also love working out both cardio and weights(surprisingly i don't get enough exercise chasing my three children around). I'am getting more into the cooking now b/c of having three very big eaters, besides my husband. i can be contacted at sunmoon_stars_@hotmail.com. If i had a mth off w/ no responsibilities i would love to travel, just for me. chances missed before marriage and children.
