Welcome!!!

Welcome to my brand new blog!! I'm not a fancy cook, I'm a down home cook. I like recipes that I, for the most part have most or all of the ingredients in my pantry. People are always asking me about recipes and meals I make so I thought I would share with everyone. I love to cook and especially bake so there will be a lot of baking recipes. I also love to try new recipes, something I've always called Guinea pig. When my kids were little they'd ask what was for dinner and if it was a new recipe I would say, Guinea pig! We got some strange looks from their friends!! And I had..still have, a rule. Taste it, at least one bite. If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it. And please tell me you don't like it so that I won't make it again! Don't spare my feelings or else I'll make it again thinking you like it! I will post the guinea pig recipes on here with our rating...whether we will make it again or not and where I got the recipe. Some will be mine, some from the web, some from family or friends, some from cookbooks. 

I'll also be talking about other things around the house...cleaning products, cleaning tips, maybe some crafts and anything else that involves having a happy home!

Please bare with me as I get started and post some things on here. It looks a little lonely but pretty soon it will be full of recipes for you to try and things to read. I hope you stick around and mostly, I hope you enjoy!!
