Butter, surprisingly enough, can almost drive me insane.  I put out a couple of sticks on the counter to bring to room temperature, run off to take care of something else, and when I return they are gone.  Did I forget to put the butter out?  I’m behind schedule, the kids are yelling, and the… MORE

So we go back quite a few years to when I just started dating my now husband.  We had been out on a few dates when he invited me over for dinner.  Of course I agreed and was very excited and nervous.  Honestly I had yet to date a guy who could cook anything outside of boxed mac and cheese or one MORE

Valentine’s Day has always been a special day at our house.  No, not because of elaborate dinners with fancy beverages but rather for the sweet treasures my parents would leave for us.  Our mom always left for work before we got up for school, so she would leave behind a meticulously wrapped… MORE

A family tradition has been started!  How it became I am not really sure other than a love for bacon.  Every year to help celebrate the new year we are required to bring the famous bacon log.  It's easier to make than it sounds.  It may not be the healthiest dish that graces your holiday… MORE

I really should be in the kitchen cleaning up my mess, but I have decided to put that off a bit in order to chat about the making of that mess since that’s more fun. Lately I’ve been in a food rut, and not really feeling the urge to cook dinner let alone bake. I though maybe something unusual… MORE

About Me
Stay at home mom of two wonderful little boys! We spend a lot of time outdoors when the weather gets nice. Cooking is a way for me to relax if everyone stays out of my way. I love to read cookbooks and the internet, always searching for that perfect recipe to make. I love to challenge myself and my family by trying new things. We used to go out to eat a lot but now we are spending less money and more time at home creating our favorite dishes.
My favorite things to cook
Dessert!!!!I love every step of it but especially the final product and making it fancy. I also really enjoy finding unique and interesting recipes and trying it out. My family doesn't always enjoy my adventurous cooking but they have learned to accept and eat it!
My favorite family cooking traditions
This would have to be our bacon log. This started years ago with an annual bacon party with friends. We stating making this for most holiday events. It's a favorite since you can never go wrong with bacon at our house!
My cooking triumphs
It's always big deal when I can get a holiday meal on the table at the same time! Also when I can get everyone to eat what's on the table without complaint and even better is when they say they like it.
My cooking tragedies
I actually blew up a stove!!!! Not my fault it was new and they screwed the handle on to tightly when they installed it. Once the oven warmed up the glass expanded and shattered!!!
