About SmaksMom:
In my little part of America, I can be found inviting friends, neighbors and the like over for dinner, out on a shopping excursion, visiting a new park, or watching NASCAR, Football or Baseball. Mostly, I love entertaining and serving others. I go the extra-mile when it comes to consideration and thoughtfulness, and making other people comfortable. Doing so always leaves me warm and fulfilled inside. I love giving, even if and especially if it means that I will go without in some way. I think that is my way of sharing in other people\'s burdens.

I prefer the outdoors to the indoors. I love gardening, and yard work. I love swimming, and boating. My most favorite thing to do is cooking. I have numerous subscriptions to cooking magazines, websites, and clubs. I absolutely LOVE it and I love doing it for others. I \"feel strongly\" about everything. I live life to the fullest. I seldom slow down, I don\'t give up, and I don\'t very often give in. :o) I am passionate about what I have experienced in life, and I am passionate about experiencing more.
