I'm married to the sweetest, kindest most wonderful man I've ever known. I have 2 sons and 1 daughter-in-law and 2 dogs. I work in television and love my job!!! During my life, the kitchen has been the center of everything going on in the house! It's a place where I can enjoy putting together a meal for my family, baking Christmas goodies that I want to share with family and friends and THE place for conversation, no matter who you're talking to! It's the comfort zone of most households!!
