I love to cook and bake and experiment with recipes. I can hardly ever leave a regular recipe alone. I'm married and work at an amazing animal shelter and love making food and treats for animals. I have a 17 year old daughter and a 4 year old daughter and they are both my whole world. If you have a question for me send me a private message and I will try to answer. :-)
