About the Recipes & Posts

• This blog is an extension of me so you’ll find recipes along with personal stories, musings, and thoughts about food and cooking. Food and cooking isn’t a stand-alone thing in life – food and cooking are intertwined in our everyday lives and I like to share my experiences with readers with the hope that it inspires you to make something delicious, too. But, I get that sometimes we’re busy so there’s a handy-dandy button at the top of each post that allows you to skip right to the recipe where you can print it and get busy cooking.
• I don’t follow any special diets (i.e. low-carb, paleo, Whole30, etc), but, as of 2017, each recipe includes nutrition information (I am slowly updating old recipes, as well) using an online nutrition calculator called Nutrifox that I trust and pay a fee to access. Readers let me know in a survey that providing nutritional estimates is helpful, so I started doing it because I like to be helpful, but be aware – I am not a nutritionist. You should use this information only as a guide.
• There’s a little bit of everything, but I focus mostly on dinner recipes with a few side dishes, breakfast, and dessert recipes every now when the mood strikes. Lately, I’ve also started developing recipes for one or two for readers who cook for themselves (like I do!) and don’t love a fridge full of leftovers.
• Have a question about a recipe? Leave a comment on the post or contact me directly – either way I love hearing from readers and try to respond quickly to questions.
• I share new posts up to three times a week and the best way to stay connected is to subscribe to my weekly newsletter. I send it out once a week and it has new posts plus other links to recipes I think readers might enjoy. I would love for you to join and, as a thank you, you’ll get a link to download a free ebook with my most popular recipes.
