Welcome to my food blog! I look forward to sharing recipes of yummy dinners, appetizers, desserts, and more!
A little background about me and my cooking experience first however. I have not always been versed in the kitchen. In fact, if you had asked my family or friends even three years ago if I could cook dinner they would have laughed so hard that they'd end up on the floor rolling over themselves. So what happened? The basic truth is I met my husband. Having someone to cook for made it so much more interesting. I couldn't wait to try new recipes and see if they got the thumbs up or down from my food-loving significant other. With Jim, if it gets a thumbs up, its good.
Last summer Jim was diagnosed with high blood pressure. Before then I cooked quite a bit, but since then I have really taken to finding a lot of new, heart healthy recipes. On average I try 3-5 new recipes a week, so I decided it was time to share them. I do not promise that all of the recipes in this blog will be healthy, (I'm known to make a mean whoopie pie), but I do promise to share with you the nutritional information when it is available so that you can make your decisions based on your nutritional needs.
I will also say that most of these recipes are not made up by moi. I can create crafty things from scratch like its my job, but I'm still learning how flavors come together. I will do my best to link to whatever site or recipe books each dish comes from.
Finally, if you do try something, please comment on it! I'd love to hear what people think of the dishes, and its always good to see how others made it their own.
I hope you all enjoy the blog as much as I enjoy writing in it. Thanks for your support1

Kristina, You are so cute! I can't believe you have a blog on food. . . . who knew. I did sign up to follow your blog. Hey do you have a place where people can share their receipes with you? Just an idea. I'm going to make this receipe for Jenny this week. Good luck and I'll be "Following You"!! :-)
Hi Auntie! Thanks so much! That's a great idea to share recipes, and I love getting ideas! You can always post it in a comment here, or if you want, email it to me and I can post it as a new entry, giving you credit of course! I'll look into if there are other ways to do that too..Jim's pretty techie so he may know of something.
Thanks for following me! Love you!
