I am married to a great guy and we recently celebrated our 40th anniversary.  Who says' it can't last..and of course I was a "child" bride......LOL  How we managed all those years is another story for another time.  We have two wonderful children, two great daughters-in-law and four marvelous grand-children.  I grew up in Rhode Island in a mill city and for many, many years French was the only language spoken by everyone.  I can appreciate being bilingual and many of the great French-Canadian recipes from my family.  I look forward to sharing with the community.  We moved to S. Florida 24 years ago and I became an outside of the house working woman.  Banking, training, public speaking were in my job description for 20 years.  Now retired I love to cook, crochet, enjoy every moment I can with my grand-children, and enjoy the time to stop and smell the roses with my DH.  Last but not least, my little Candy-Girl was rescued about two years ago and she has brought so much joy and love to our family.  She is a Boston Terrier, aka Boston Bull.  She is the cutie in the photo.

This catagory is difficult for me to condense.  So, I will tell you what I do not like, liver and crawfish.  I tried all types of recipes, even authentic crawfish etouffee in New Orleans.....sorry, no can do.  Everything else is fair game!

 

Speaking of favorites, when I post a recipe, in my opinion it is worth 5 stars.  But, modesty and knowing not everyone has the same taste, I rate them 4 stars. I will let the community give their objective opinions.
