Read a little bit about Lark here:

I am a wife of 15 Years. Mother of 1 beautiful 13 yr. old daughter.
I live in a small country town in southern Nevada.

I currently Volunteer at our local middle/high school to
teach cooking class to the students 2 times a week.
I am a substitute librarian.

I love to run marathons, read, craft and travel,
enter cooking/baking contest’s.

I try to “Pay it Forward” as often as possible.
I believe strongly in helping to “Find a Cure“.

I started my Lark’s Country Heart Blog in 2009, with the intent of organizing my
own recipes I had created over the years. It then the turned into a way to keep myself busy
after being laid off of work. I create 3 new recipes each week to share on
the Larks Country Heart Blog.

I have always wanted to have my recipes published into a series of cookbooks
so what started off as just organizing/typing up my recipes, has now turned into a goal of being
published.

Biggest Cooking accomplishment:
Having my Pecan Cream Cheese Custard Pie~
Win the Dessert to Impress category in the Real Women Of Philadelphia Contest.
And having My recipe published in their Season Two Cookbook.

Favorite Saying:
Oh My flipping Heck” ????

Biggest Pet Peeve:
Dusting!….UGH!

How did you loose 100+ lbs.?
I started with the Weight Watchers program and went to meetings for a full year.
Then did it on my own using all I had learned, along with walking every day.
It took 4 years to loose 100 lbs. (slow & steady)

How many Marathons have you ran?
As of Oct 2012~
I have finished 2 full marathons (26.2 Miles)
and 13 half marathons (13.1 Miles)
*With plans for 2 more half marathons plus the
Susan G. Komen 3 Day for the Cure (60 Miles) ~ this will be my 3rd yr.
To finish out the 2012 year ????
