For me, the secret of cooking is flavor. I have a cupboard specifically for spices and seasonings that seems to grow a little more every time I go to the grocery store. I've learned that you can make anything new and interesting by just adding a sprinkle of something different. Same with making a dish your own... a little of this or that gives whatever you've made that something special that

Don't fret- this blog hasn't disappeared. If you read my other blog, then you'll know that things have been hectic this past few months, and my brain has been scattered to the four winds! But, that doesn't mean I haven't been cooking! I've got a lot of old favorites and some new must haves for you, coming soon! So, keep taking a peek through the kitchen door- the coffee is brewing, and it's time

I love comfort food. Meatloaf and mashed potatoes smothered in gravy. Macaroni and cheese (from that blue box.. awful I know!), something comforting and familiar after a really bad day. Or just something to give you that cozy feeling on a cold or rainy afternoon. One of my all time favorites has always been tuna noodle casserole. Since I like to make everything my own, I've tinkered with a basic,

I love baking. I really do. I like the smell of it, the excitement the kids get from grabbing beaters and bowl to "clean up" after....I just really, really love to bake. And I especially love any recipe where I can cut some sugar and sneak in a little healthy sweetness. This bread lets me do that, and it tastes so, so good! This would also be great with a little less cinnamon and some

I am still under construction, but I wanted to take a second and welcome all of you to my kitchen! I can't promise you any five course, five star gourmet dishes, but I CAN promise you lots of fun, friends and food! And probably some messes, too! Some things to remember, here in the kitchen:I cook without measuring. When I bake, I follow directions to the letter. But in cooking, anything goes. I
