Tasty Recipes

I’m a dessert girl.  I love my sweets. Trust me…..it’s a family thing…..it’s in my genes 😉

I am so fortunate to come from a line of fantastic bakers…..my mom, grandmothers and many aunts. They inspired me to bake and it is from there that I realized my passion and talent for it.  Not only did they teach me the art of baking, but have also handed down plenty of AMAZING recipes that I am so excited to share with you!

Since we can’t live on sweets alone, you will also find other great recipes that I have enjoyed making.  I spend a lot of time in the kitchen (and let’s face it – with two growing boys and their large appetites, that is not likely to change anytime soon)!

I will never post a recipe on my blog that I have not tried and tested myself.  You will see that a lot of recipes come along with my own notes of what has worked (or hasn’t!) from my experience.

I would love to hear from you!  Please leave me comments on any recipes that you have tried or even changed up to make your own!

Remember to have fun and never forget the one key ingredient that goes into EVERY recipe…….LOVE!
