  About This Site:
A former elementary school teacher, I have always been interested in cooking, recipes and entertaining.  I worked in catering for many years before teaching for 12 years.  Now I'm home cooking for my family and friends and constantly testing recipes to post on my website.  About 75% of the recipes posted are tried and true... either by me or friends and family.  The other 25% are recipes that look really yummy to me or have been highly recommended by friends on the web.  If I try a recipe and it's not a keeper... it gets deleted from the site.  If a recipe on the site receives several poor ratings, it will also be deleted from the site.  My goal is to keep only the best recipes for you to browse.  There's no point in keeping recipes around that aren't favorites.  All recipes have a source listed, unless the recipe came to me without a source given.  I want to give credit where it's due. 
  How the site works:
It's free for the user, and it's an advertiser-supported site.  I've collected recipes that I feel are the best- to share with others who love recipes, food and entertaining.  The "theme" of the site is changed at the beginning of each month and will be reflected on the home page.  I try to stick with seasonal themes or themes that are current or in demand.  If you have a suggestion for a category that you'd like added to the site, please let us know!
 
Things we plan to add to the site:
The site is worked on every day.  Recipes are constantly being added.  Ratings and pictures are also added each day.  We have many things in the works.  I'm working on a food dictionary that will be added to the site eventually.  It's a big project!  We're always throwing dinner parties (theme parties) and adding those menus to the site as we can.  This part of the site will grow as we are able to entertain.
