Hello and welcome to my new blog! My name is Angela. I am a wife and a mother. I stay home with the kids and enjoy every minute of it. I am not a fancy cook. I am not a chef. I have worked in restaurants but we are talking fast food, not fine dining. I learned how to cook from my mom and grandma by watching what they did in the kitchen and pestering them with lots of questions.

I love food. My whole life growing up I was always told I was a picky eater. I only ate cheese on pizza. I liked my burgers with only ketchup, no cheese or anything else. I didn't eat a cheeseburger until I was 16. I didn't eat salad until then either. And then would only eat one salad dressing.

Then, I met my husband. He said "try it, you will like it" and I trusted him. And amazingly enough, I did! I know eat at  very wide variety of foods. And I love to be in the kitchen cooking. I prefer to make things from scratch. I find that a lot of people think that cooking from scratch takes talent. It really doesn't.

I cannot wait to get started on this journey!
