About me
I love cats. I also love recipes and kitchen gadgetry (utensils, shortcut equipment, tough-as-nails non-stick cookware), but, believe it or not, cooking is not my favorite thing. How I can have such fascinations with all things kitchen without a strong desire to use them is beyond me. My mother is a consummate domestic goddess - she simply loves everything involved in homemaking. It's more difficult for her now that she's 91 and legally blind, so I stay with her and do much of the cooking (she still does what she can by touch and smell). She occasionally provides us with a burnt offering or two, but even with my sight, I've done that, too. LOL My favorite was when she baked some redskin potatoes for dinner once and they turned out to be pears!!! (This was when Dad was still alive and she did all the cooking.) We did tease her for that! I'm not a bad cook - I just don't enjoy it like she does. She misses it terribly. Apparently, though, the love-of-cooking gene found my son because he's been cooking since he was 11 and is the main cook for his family. If you haven't noticed, I favor recipes with relatively few steps, but with grand flavor. I enjoy eating good food, so try to make sure the recipe will be just that - good! I want it to taste like there was far more effort put into it than there was. Plus, when budgets are tight, I want it to have ingredients most people can afford. I hope you enjoy the recipes I have found and look forward to seeing the ones you all have to offer as well.

Thanks again for another comment and rating on the Kahlua Brownie Recipe, wonder if there's a recipe to make your own Kahlua also LOL I'll have to do some investigating.

Ha ha! You sound just like me! I LOVE kitchen things!! Little bowls that I can use for a few different purposes, beautiful stainless steel pots and pans (and like you said heavy-duty skillets)(I have the most beautiful stainless steel soup pot in the world that I got at Goodwill for $10.00!! My mom and sister drool when they see it!! Also, I love easy recipes but only if they taste GOOD. I don't believe there is any point in cooking if it doesn't taste good! You might as well just make yourself a wonderful cold sandwich then -- at least what you are MAKING (if not cooking) will taste good! Your recipes look fabulous and I can't wait to go through them more thoroughly! I've sent you a friend request. Hope you accept! (Love the story about your mom and the pears! My grandmother once added egg nog to the mashed potatoes on Christmas day instead of milk!)
