About

Cooking is fun. Eating is funner. I cook, photograph and write these recipes. Everything I post on this blog I make from scratch using fresh wholesome ingredients.. I've been cooking since I was a little kid. My recipes are based on trial and error, along with studying cookbooks, family recipes, blogs and cooking shows. Some of the veggies and herbs I use are grown in my garden. Yay sustainability! I'm working on making my yard into an edible landscape. It's really fun to go out in the garden and pick your veggies for dinner! Besides cooking, gardening and photography, I also like to sew. Here are some items from my Etsy Shop:

White Bean Soup with Stars This was easy, cheap and delicious. And it was improvised. I really didn’t think we had anything for lunch in the house. Then I remembered the can of white beans in the pantry, the basic veggies I always try to have on hand, carrots, celery and onion in the crisper drawer, fresh parsley growing in the front yard and tiny stars pasta I had just purchased at the Italian Deli. Making soup is easy, healthy and fun. In a soup pot, saute one onion, 2 stalks celery and 2 carrots, (chopped) in a little bit of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add 2 smashed and crushed garlic cloves, one carton of veggie or chicken stock and one can of rinsed and drained Canelli or white beans. Bring to a boil and add 1/4 cup small soup pasta, turning the heat down to a simmer. The small pasta cooks quickly, which is nice if you are always starving like I am. Add 1 tblsp chopped parsley and some dried basil. Serve with freshly grated parmesan cheese and garlic bread.
