I am a culinary school graduate now practicing in my home kitchen. I currently teach special education. I have two beautiful girls, 18 and 10, who both drive me nuts in their own special ways ;). I LOVE to cook, but I HATE to clean up. I enjoy trying new foods. I may need to seek help for my recipe addiction. I have more recipes than I could ever use, but you never know when some obscure recipe might come in handy!
