I was very fortunate that I grew up in a loving family that was very close and was all about food. My mother cooked three meals a day and always had a homemade dessert with dinner every night. The smell of homemade bread as you walk in the house - I will never forget those memories She was a wonderful and talented cook, or should I say Chef, so this is where I received my passion for cooking. My dad was also a great cook. My dad was so happy when he would invite his friends and family for dinner. My mother would say, "You are going to wear me out " But she truly loved it also.
Enjoy these recipes. It's my pleasure to share them with you.
