About This Blog

Welcome to my wonderful adventure into blogging about cooking better, smarter, faster! So many people have told me I should be doing this that I decided to take the plunge…it’s a grand experiment out of my comfort zone, sharing things here to inspire YOU to get cooking!

I believe you have the capacity to be a good cook…and make healthy quick whole food meals (maybe even a little cheaper than you think)…if you just knew how.

I didn’t when I started. My mom didn’t teach me, my grandmother didn’t teach me. I taught myself over the years with a LOT of trial and error. And then about ten years ago, when my husband lost his job, I was faced with needing to cook every meal in order to save money…and believe me, I learned a lot more VERY quickly.

Since then even more has happened to help me refine my methods and food choices (you can read my whole story here), and I continue to learn more every day…through mistakes sometimes, but even more often through happy experimenting.

I promise whether you know nothing about cooking OR you’re already cooking 3 meals a day, if you follow along, you ARE going to learn something new that will help you cook better, smarter, or faster. REALLY!
