. . . And it begins

I was thinking the other day (as my son SC was asking "what should I make for dinner for this girl I just met?") I really need a way to keep connected to my family, and maybe sharing recipes with them might be a good way to accomplish this...food is a great way to express yourself, keep traditions alive, and make your loved ones happy. 

Since I get asked for recipes all the time, I thought create a place to post all the recipes I have been collecting over the years.  Anyone could access them anytime or place and share them with people they care about as well.   Hubby's shrimp pilaf, Grandma R's beef soup and mandu, PI's oven fried chicken, CB's Spanish tortilla, or TM's wonderful pepper and tomato appetizer are just a few of the delicious recipes I have made throughout the years and get requests for all the time. 

So set up a blog like millions of others right?   Unfortunately I am one of those tech-challenged folks who don't know a widget from an app so bear with me as I have a learning curve to conquer.  But there's no time like the present so, while visiting JS for the weekend, I begin to set it up as the sun starts to rise and I see the beautiful Pacific from my guest room window...I am inspired!

Okay, here it goes loved ones. . .
