I fell in love with cooking as a little girl, sitting on the counter, helping Mom cook. That shared love of cooking is what this blog is all about. I want this to be a place where we can all share and learn from each other all our favorite recipes, kitchen tips, and more. From how to fry an egg to Grandma's tried and true classics to your favorite olive oil. I hope everyone enjoys the blog, has fun with it, and will contribute your own ideas.

Cheesecake Sopapillas

This is a recipe I haven't yet made myself yet. My sister in law, Leslie, has made it twice for family functions and it is ridiculously good. Enjoy!
