Welcome! This is my space to share kitchen adventures, favorite recipes, and other things that make me happy.
I enjoy cooking for lots of reasons:
- Finding new-to-me dishes and ingredients
- Discovering time-saving recipes that are fast and easy
- Using healthy ingredients that nourish my husband and me
- Indulging in fun desserts (or breakfasts that taste like dessert)
- Eating really, really delicious food <— best part!
I am always learning and would love any tips and recipes you can share with me as well.
Just wanted to give a peek of what’s In The Mixing Bowl!
