I decided to create this blog since several of my friends ask for my recipes and always rave about how yummy they are. I love to cook from scratch, and I'm always experimenting in the kitchen. As my husband so lovingly puts it, I'm a "hippie" at heart, so I prefer fresh, organic foods. In recipes where fresh foods aren't applied, it's to speed up the cooking process. (as a mother of three, I'm not always looking to spends hours in the kitchen each day) I hope you enjoy!
