Welcome~

Sara and I decided, after seeing the show 'Julie & Julia', that we should start a recipe exchange blog. We both love to cook and often discuss meals we are making for our families... however we never actually get around to exchanging the recipes! This way we can post a yummy recipe to the blog and have immediate access to it. Any of you out there who read this blog and who have a good recipe to share are welcome to post it in the comments (please cite the author if known) and we will post it on the blog to share! We love new recipes that are simple... and sometimes not so simple.

I have not always loved cooking. In fact, when Adam I were first married I didn't know how to boil canned green beans! However, after years of practice and fierce devotion to watching & learning from Rachel Ray... I have come a LONG ways in the cooking department. I can now poach eggs without the help of any kitchen gadgets (and thanks to Julia Childs careful instructions in her cookbook that I was recenlty given by my mom and Sara). Enjoy!
