I have been blogging about food since 2004. That has added up to a lot of meal plannin', picture takin', and taste testin'. While I have changed blog names and URLs in the past, (you know how that goes when you pick a name out of desperation because all of your top choices are already taken) I have put down roots in this website. To give you an idea of what I enjoy blogging about here are some handy shortcuts.
Sometimes I cook healthy-ish food (leaning towards the 'ish')
Impossible Banana Ice Cream
Grilled Portobello Sandwiches with Garlic Herb Mayo
Butternut and Acorn Squash Soup
Other times I cook really indulgent food
Pepperoni Mac and Cheese
Spinach, Bacon, Swiss and Cream Cheese Quiche
Lemon Ooey Gooey Bars
I cook from scratch
Chocolate Zucchini Bread
Blueberry Crumb Bars
Baby Bluebird Cupcakes
But I also am not afraid to bust out a cake mix or other convenience product
Barbecue Chicken Pizza
Chocolate Gooey Butter Cookies
Banana Butterscotch Cake

I would love to be able to say that I use a fancy camera to take pictures with, but I don't. It is a craptastic digital point and shoot that I am not a big fan of. I would also love to be able to say that I have a light box to shoot my food in, or even a dining room table to set my food at, but I don't. Truth be told, I photograph my food as it sits on the arm of my couch. Classy! If you ever wondered why I like macro shots, the reason is I'm trying to hide the fact that I have no place to properly shoot my food. I'll be working on changing this in the future.
I also host a monthly food link party and every Friday I feature amazing blog posts that you should check out.
