Yes I am a dog lover!

Hi,   My name Is Martina and I have created this website so that you could enjoy my recipes as much as my family and I do.

I have been cooking for a long time –way  to long to actually give numbers!  My husband Gene and I have been married for 46 years  and we currently live in St. Louis. MO.  I have three children, seven grandchildren  and one great grandson. 

My daughter Debbie (the oldest) has been married to her husband Eric for 27 years.  They have three children Nicki, (26)  Travis (21) and Ryan (17).  They live in Bentonville, Arkansas  Nicki is the mother of my great grandson Dylan who recently turned three.

Gary (my middle child)  and his wife Kim are the prod parents of twin boys who are now  four .  Mac and Sam – the twins_ area  quite a handful and really keep me on my toes when I babysti them.

My daughters and I  recently had “Martina’s Recipes” Volume One printed into  hard copy and had books made for all the family members.  It was such a hit that I am currently working on Volume Two
