About the blog

About Me
I am a stay at home mom with three children, ages 14, 4, and 2.  We have a tremendous love of food in my family and I am constantly looking for and trying recipes that need to satisfy My husband and I, my oldest son, my toddlers, and that will make great baby food for my youngest when he's ready.  I decided to start a blog to help me organize my recipes and also to share recipes with others.

My Inspiration...
I have to thank my mother for my love of food.  She has been and will always be my inspiration and my mentor. No matter what was going on in our lives growing up, she always saw the importance of a good meal.  And boy can she cook!  She is the ultimate hostess and is always the one everyone calls when they need help preparing a spread for their next event.  Not a week goes by that we don't have a phone conversation about what we're cooking that week, what we have planned for a holiday, or what new cooking instrument we've discovered.  I hope that I can make my family (and my readers) as happy with their meals as she does.

The Blog
While my family has some favorites that we like to have frequently, I am always on the search for new recipes.  I have found that many times I will make something that we love but then forget about the recipe when it comes to planning our meals for a week.  This led me to think of a way to organize my recipes and help keep track with what worked for us and what didn't.  I decided to start this blog as a way of doing that and also to share these recipes with other in the hopes that maybe it can help them finding inspiration and ideas for feeding their family.  I will also occasionally discuss some of my favorite kitchen tools and techniques including, coming this summer, making baby food for my youngest.  I feel this blog will probably change and evolve as I see what works and what doesn't and I look forward to and encourage your feedback as I go through this journey.
