About Me

Atlanta, Georgia, United States
I have always loved to cook. Ever since I was a little girl in my grandmother's kitchen, often tugging at her skirt hem, I've found joy in the simple indulgence of food. My grandmother taught me how to put heart and soul into food. I love through my food. Even now, as an adult, I find myself at my grandmother's house on special occasions, sneaking food off the table before anyone else arrives. I hope that through this blog you will understand my joy and love of food and maybe even find joy and love of your own.

This Week's Menu

This is my second week attempting Menu Plan Mondays.  I made the deadline.  Yay!!  Maybe next week.  Last week I learned that it was very easy to follow my menu plan during the week, but my weekends were chaotic.  Also, being single, it's easy for things to just kinda pop up during my week, and I have a couple of impromptu dinners that came up during the week, but I still managed to stick closely to my menu plan.  Here's this week's menu plan.

Dinner:  Peanut butter and Jelly with Homemade Bread

Tuesday

    Okay, I have to ask, what's the deal with pizza? I'm not sure I've ever met anyone who didn't like SOME kind of pizza.

      Everyone says that. I don't know, really. Never been a fan. I also don't like chocolate, which is the real shocker for most people, so I'm trying to figure out who to give my truffles to when we make them. :-)
