Kristal

26-year-old ichthyophobic mother of one and step-mother of one more with aspirations of winning the lottery, retiring young and travelling the world. If I could describe myself in four words I would say: devoted, honest, talkative & intelligent. I like to cook, although I would say that the experience is a lot more enjoyable if you don't have a baby pulling on your leg and crying! I don't always get a lot of time in the kitchen anymore. So for me lately, the quicker the better and I definitely get a lot of use out of my crock pot!
