It is a good thing I love working out because I also love food! I love experimenting in the kitchen, trying to make a recipe to taste just right. Could I make…. taste like the one I had at that restaurant last week? Could I make…. cheaper and just as tasty as my favorite brand?
Sometimes the experiments don’t work, but those that do I share.

My Family’s Favorite Peppermint Recipes
My favorite cookbooks
I know The Tightwad Gazette isn’t really a cookbook but it does have dozen’s of thrifty recipes that my family uses over and over again so much so that the book lives in our kitchen.
This cookbook is a classic that I think every cook new and old needs in their recipe collection.
If you want to get use out of that bread machine this cookbook is a must!
Most of my family’s favorite cookie recipes can be found in this cookbook.
Amish cooking soothes the soul which is why I love this cookbook.
