I'm finally going to do it...

I received enough "start a blog already" suggestions that I am finally doing it... Plus it's almost as trendy as being on Twitter, and I am WAY to cheap (and boring) to jump on that bandwagon. More than anything, it's a way to share and categorize my recipes. I might even throw in a few pictures of my adorable little boy...

Funny how that happens.

I like to cook people pleasing, yummy, heartwarming food. It's occasionally healthy, almost always adaptable, and usually easy. I always use garlic... always. I do my best to stay on a budget, and always plan a menu for at least a week (this has more to do with living 25 minutes from a grocery store than being thrifty, but it works either way). I know what it is like to cook with a toddler tugging at my pants, a puppy nipping my ankles, and a hungry husband waiting (somewhat) patiently in the other room, all those factors make getting food on the table a little difficult sometimes. Nonetheless, we must eat, so I crank up my radio and get to work.

My plating ability is low, my photography skills are lacking, and the lighting in my house is worse, but with any luck, you will be able to get the idea of what things are supposed to look like.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy my recipes. And can ignore my typos...
