I thought that this was such a neat idea, especially for a mother or grandmother who has amassed years of recipes.  I made sure to ask my mom about her recipes so that I [...]

I like eggs a great deal, however I find myself incapable of eating anything other than scrambled eggs.  Others get to enjoy the millions of different ways that eggs can be prepared and I'm stuck with scrambled.  While I don't mind cooking over-easy, sunnyside-up or boiled eggs for others, I must say that I am [...]

Another late night at the office resulted in the need for a quick meal when I got home, so I turned to the staples of all staples my frozen pulled pork and corn tortillas. For those of you that have been reading here for a while, I do apologize for the large amount of [...]

I am looking at buying a enamel cast iron dutch oven for my kitchen, but I don't know which one to buy. It seems to be the only group of products on Amazon.com that has absolutely no recommendations. I have yet to even find a store in the Cleveland area that actually sells [...]
