A Long Time Coming

What feels like a really long time ago I decided to start this blog.  I figured, "I'm a mom, I understand the challenges of home cooking in the realities of everyday life."  I look back on that version of myself now and say , "Ha, you hadn't seen nothin' yet girlie."  Over a year ago I stopped blogging. "Why," you ask.  I'll tell you why, real life.  I found out I was pregnant again and was to sick to even think about food.  Then I was too uncomofortable.  Then Adele was born and busy took on new meaning.  Now Joseph likes to "help" and everything takes six times longer.  This is real life for a lot of moms and I thought, "I really need to get back to cooking and I need to get back to blogging about my kitchen adventures, and misadventures."  So here is what I am setting out to do:
1) Actually write on this blog at least once a week.  Of couse I cook more often than that but realistically I'll be lucky if even one meal a week is worth sharing and twice as lucky if I actually have time to share it..
2) Tell you how long it really took me.  Was toddler helped involved? Will my very picky 3-year-old eat it?
3) Tell you if it was actually worth cooking\eating.
I am not making up these recipes.  I'm honestly not that creative.  I do tweak them if the original didn`t quite hit the mark.  I try as often as possible to tell you where the original recipe is from.  I hope some of you will enjoy this blog, redesigned for the everyday mom (or dad).  I also hope you will tell me what you think about it and the recipes I post.  Let me know what you like, don't like, and whether or not you are even reading it at all.  Check back soon for our first dish, and welcome to real life!
