Cookbooks, Restaurants and Everything in Between
Preparing myself for the Valentine weekend with Nick and then one more week of work before I take a week off to finally do some proper job searching because I really have to find another job….ASAP!
Along with that I will also get my blog transferred over to a self-hosted site, so I’m excited about finally getting that done and pray I can do it without too much trouble. Continue reading “Finding Myself, While Cooking Like Mom”
After two failed recipe attempts over the past couple of weeks, I don’t know what happened, they started off as good ideas but they fell a little short of what I was aiming for.

I’m a little late for this one, so I will be writing two posts in one day so I can catch up 🙂
This prompt was really hard for me, trying to think of which of my favorite foods made me happy when I came to the conclusion that it’s good food that makes me happy no matter what kind it is.
