The Holidays are behind us and the New Year is upon us. For me, January has always been the month I clean, sort, organize and plan. I clean out drawers, closets and cupboards. I sort papers needed for taxes

If you've read my profile, you know that I've never been much of a cook. I am so loving this time in my life because I have time to try many things I've never tried before and I'm learning to cook/make things I never thought I would.
This summer I was introduced to Sushi. What I thought was goi

that has been going on forever. There is much to be said about Cupcakes vs. Muffins. Below are just a few of the things I found out abo

Each year we count down the days until we can attend the State Fair under the guise of viewing and lauding all the cook's, canner's and baker's accomplishments. It's really just a pathetic excuse to stop by all those greasy little stands and eat absolutely

What a wonderful time of year it is! It's not quite Fall and it's not totally Summer anymore. The mornings are cool with just a tad bit of moisture in the air. And, the smell, mmmmmmm! Can you smell it? The season is changing. In the morning there is this

O.k. I'm addicted to cupcakes! There. I've said it. It all started out so innocently. But now, all I want to do is bake cupcakes and eat cupcakes. And, to top it off, I must watch every single episode of "Cupcake Wars" for an extra fix!

During hot weather it seems like salads are an easier, cooler option for dinner. And lately I've been making Pasta Salads. My latest creation was inspired by my love of Bacon, Lettuce and Tomatoe sandwiches. (We also eat lots of sandwiches during the summer
