My favorite son Christian (CJ) for short has decided to start his own blog. Speaking of short he is a small boy for 13yrs and he almost called himself the tiny teenage chef! LOL! He has a passion for cooking. (he actually asked for cookbooks for Christmas if you can imagine) He received the ever trusty Better Homes and Gardens Cook Book 15th edition and intends to try every single recipe in it! Kinda like a Julie Julia concept. I am hoping he gets lots of positive support and I know my blog friends who are so kind and sweet and supportive would be happy to help him out! Check it out here!! PS here is a link to check the book out below!
I love love love things that make my house smell well.....yummy! These recipes are wonderful for just that! I love to just throw the ingredients into a small saucepan on the stove and let them just barely simmer. (not to be left unattended) This also makes a great neighbor gift! Just deliver the ingredients to a friend with the instructions in a cute embellished bag and TA DA! Cheap, yet wonderful gift!! (plus makes a great humidifier too!)
