Hi!
I am a work at home Mom with a beautiful 8 year old daughter, and I run a catering business from my kitchen.
My daughter is the light of my life!!
My favourite thing in the world?
Cuddling with her and reading books together.

She is enrolled in a French Immersion School and is in Grade Three and she is a real smarty pants. She takes after her Mommy of course

I love to practice Reiki, it feels great to be able to help people! I also love Yoga, and read just about anything.

I am passionate about organ donation education. My Father has had a kidney transplant, and it saved his life.
He now gets to see my daughter grow up, something that never would have happened if a kind stranger had not signed their organ donation card.
My daughter adores her Poppa.
Please sign your organ donation card, you could save a life, and affect thousands more!

I run our family business from home and have been married for 19 wonderful years to the most fantastic man. (No, I really mean that!!)
He does most of the cooking here....he's a great cook. (Told you he was fantastic!)
He plays guitar and always entertains everyone at get togethers and parties.

I am a co-host of the Canadian Cooking Forum here on Zaar, come over for a visit at Canadian Cooking Forum.
You can also find me hanging out with my Australian Friends in their Forum

I was lucky enough to have a visit last summer from ~Rita~ and her hubby John, along with her friends Jay and Michelle. We had a barbeque with some other Zaarites and then they spent the night. If I could figure out how to post additional photos here, I would....arrghh! I will have to figure it out.....
~Rita~ is the most terrific and kind person you will ever meet, and I love her dearly.
She is my Sister!

Another person I want to mention is my very dear friend Potscrubber.
If you need a laugh, visit his homepage
Potscrubber's Page
He makes me laugh and cry and sometimes both at the same time.
I love him and am blessed to count him as one of my best friends!
Plus, he is eye candy....

This past February I had the honour of going to Costa Rica to be a Bridesmaid at my dear friend NcMysteryShopper 's wedding to her Hubby KC.
It was a beautiful time and a beautiful place!
My daughter Sarah was a gorgeous flower girl (along with Chery's son Ty as handsome Ring Bearer)and my Husband played the music for the ceremony.
I also had the privilege of meeting some people that I now can say are some of my best friends! Mommy Diva and her Hubby Rob, Chef~V and her hubby Ric, mama's kitchen and her hubby Mike, and of course dear sweet sassafrasnanc!!
I adore these people

I joined Zaar to become a better cook, and it sure has worked. My husband can't believe how great my cooking has become. He still does most of the cooking though!
My friends are like my family, and we get together often. We are truly lucky and blessed with the most amazing people in our lives.

My favourite foods are Asian and Indian, but I love just about anything and like to try new foods!
I also think I am developing an alarming addiction to risotto.

I have been a co-host of the Zaar World Tour from the beginning, and I love it! The new food I get to try, the fun and friends are terrific. My Husband is a willing participant and helps me cook all sorts of new dishes.
I had a blast co-hosting the first Zaar World Tour 2005 with NcMysteryShopper.
Then, Zaar World Tour II doubled in size and NCmysteryshopper and I were joined with co-hosts mama's kitchen and kzbhansen.
The third Tour was a smashing success with 160 Players!! Wow, our little game has sure grown.
Zaar has generously donated a $1,000 prize to go to the charity of choice of the winning team, The Good Lookin' Cookin' Mamas!
Very cool.

One of our favourite things to do with friends is have a theme dinner night, where we choose a type of food such as Greek, Asian, Moroccan etc. and we cook authentic dishes from that area. It's lots of fun and we all enjoy trying new dishes.
