HI! I'm married and have a spunkly little daughter. DH and I both LOVE to eat (and so does our daughter), and fortunately, I love to cook. I took 5 years of cooking classes in school and can follow a recipe to perfection, but it never really taught me how to be CREATIVE.
Since joining Zaar, I've found many wonderful recipes and I'm starting to explore more with adding a pinch of this or a pinch of that to my old recipes. Spices have always scared me when it comes to experimenting/being creative, but I'm learning.
As of this year, I started back doing the one thing I really love...baking! I took a decorating class and one thing led to another so now I make cakes for people. I really love it and hope someday to actually open my own bake shop. So for now, I'm baking for family and friends.
When I'm not on my cooking and baking sprees, I'm chasing after my daughter. She keeps us super busy. When I get a break from that, I enjoy doing my crafts. I make paper mache keepsake boxes and artsy-fartsy piggy banks.
Here are just a few things I love to make - both cakes and papier mache:
