Cooking

Every time I see certain family members, they always ask about my cooking.  They ask if all I'm making is spaghetti or if we go out to eat.  No matter what I say, they don't believe it.  So I'm going to prove them all wrong! 

I have to admit, I don't think I'm a good cook at all.  And if I don't feel like cooking, we will usually just heat up some leftovers or whatever we have in the freezer or order take out.  But I can honestly say, that when I do cook, it's not always spaghetti.  Even if it's my favorite food!   I like to try new recipes.  And I'm constantly looking online and through magazines and cookbooks on new things to try.

Last night, when Jeremy and I sat down to eat (and I did cook!), I decided to start writing about the meals I make and post the recipes, if I used one.  Maybe even a picture or two.  And hopefully I can get Jeremy to write a quick review on what I made.

So....check back soon to see what I've been cookin' up!  And maybe I'll add in a little baking.

Valentine's Day Crafting

I realized I really don't have any Valentines Day decorations.  So I decided to make some of my own.  This morning, I made a little wreath and some hearts to make garland.  I plan on sewing up some conversation heart bowl fillers.  Pictures coming soon!

Yummy Treats!

I wanted to get something for each person in my office, but didn't want to spend a lot of money.  So this year, I dipped pretzel rods in chocolate and then decorated with crushed candy canes, sprinkles, and white chocolate.  I also made some rice krispy treats, but they didn't come out so great.  I decorated these with chocolate and sprinkles.  I then put them in cute little bags and handed them.  Everyone loved them!




And here is Jeremy making sure the chocolate was just right...

 

Happy New Year!

Wishing everyone a very joyous and happy 2010!  May this year be a good one for all of us!
