About Me

When I got married several years ago, I was thrilled with the prospect of creating beautiful, nutritious meals on a daily basis for my adoring husband.  (Is anyone else laughing with me?)  Within a few months, the glow was gone and I was exasperated trying to figure out what to fix for dinner every single day.  Adding three kids to the mix has only made meal time more of a challenge for me.  The biggest problem is that I have always loved cooking and trying new things, (within reason), and I just wasn't feeling it anymore.  I enjoy testing my culinary abilities and learning new ways and techniques in the kitchen.  Heading along in my comfortable little rut was not feeding my need to explore.  So, I decided to do something about it. 

As I find new and interesting recipes, I add them to a little "Try It Out" folder on my internet favorites.  And, eventually, they will end up here.  I hope that this little corner of the internet will inspire you to expand beyond your comfort-food zone.  Come cook with me in My Little Red Kitchen!
