Personal

When I was a little girl, my Mom needed help in the kitchen, I was the one to go and help her. She loved to back, cook, and anything that she made in the kitchen. I wanted to be just like her and be able to make everything taste delicious. After many years, Mom would let me just take over. We made German and Norwegian foods at all times of the year, she was a wonderful teacher. We worked as a team. When the meals were over, she would sit right beside me and teach me how to sew. After years of making my own clothes, my children and husband’s clothes, I started to work at Mode”O Day, a sewing factory. When it closed in 1984, I started working in a restaurant in my home town. I have been in food service since. I love to make Holiday meals for my family. I feel that I do a rather great job getting everything ready for the meal at one time. Guess that I just love to make people happy with whatever they are tasking and eating. I have lots of talent and would love to work for you.
