Certified Kitchen Manager, South Suburban parks and Recreational. - 5 years
I love to try new fun recipes from food to candy . I love art and creating diy projects .
I absolutely love making new soups or just different kinds of dishes because we have to live every single day of our lives and we have to eat to stay alive it gets frustrating having to eat the same thing over and over again. I truly enjoy making different kinds of candies just to see if I can do it because they are or Challenge and there are all different kinds of temps and all that good stuff I absolutely hate baking because I am awful at it but I like to practice and get better at it whenever I have some free time.
As far diy projects in love to save money and get my creativity out that way. Plus they can make fun gifts that more personal.
