What qualifies one to write a book about anything? So much of what we read is polished with the shadows of politics or manipulation. Firstly, I was born female. It has been my life long dream to find someone who knows how to treat a woman with respect at the same time making life interesting and pleasurable. Secondly, I was born into a family that is pretty normal by most accounts I've read about how a "normal" family functions. And thirdly, I have this need to share what I've learned. My mother said I should have been a teacher. It was my father who said I would be a good nurse. I've been a nurse for thirty-one years, a daughter for fifty-four, a wife for four and now a divorcee for six years. I have been through some interesting experiences with men in my journey. Outside of my professional life, I opened a small business baking cakes and making fudge. I inherited an intense interest in cooking. My whole family loves to feed people. I live in Staunton, Virginia. My cakes are sold on eBay and at Cranberry's Grocery and Eatery in downtown Staunton. Grandma's Garage, LLC is the business and while it is small, there has been a very satisfying relationship between the people I bake and cook for and myself. Along with my work as a nurse, I do what I can to reach out to the community at large whenever there is a need. I love music, sing in two church choirs, and love animals. So, with this printing of my first book, I have shared my story and my recipes. It's my heritage and you are now given my story.
