Here We Go!!

Hi. My name is Kristy. I am not a cook. Most of the time I don't even like to cook.

So why have a kitchen blog? I'm asking myself the same question. My motivation comes from the fact that my family likes to eat. There are 5 of us, so that means a lot of food is consumed in this home. Someone is responsible for feeding this family and that person is me.

I have been on strike for a long time. My family has been fending for themselves for a long time. But I am ready to take the bull by the horns. I ready to conquer my fear of the kitchen.

I told my husband when we got married (18 years ago)..."no unexpected guests for mealtime". I was petrified. I still get sick to my stomach when people are coming over for a meal.

So this is what I want to conquer. I want to be comfortable in the kitchen. I want to have fun cooking for my family and for other people. I want to find the joy in this hobby and more importantly, I want to find the joy in just being a mom that provides great food for her family.

If you want to come along for the ride, feel free! I am a vegetarian who leans toward being vegan. I hope to try new things and document my progress along the way.

Here we go!!
