Welcome to My Kitchen

This is the place that I love to be. I like to be creative and cooking is what is doing it for me these days. It's kind of a necessity and it makes me feel accomplished. I like knowing what we are eating and where it comes from. I go out of my way to make sure this happens.
I like that I don't buy several household staples from a grocery store. I enjoy making applesauce, jams and jellies, apple butter, spaghetti sauce, spicy mustard, pickles and anything else I can.
I like getting dirty, getting my hands into things, feeling and experiencing my food from the beginning to the end. I like making things, growing things and bringing those two together to create a healthy meal. I like nourishing others and knowing that I did my best to give them the best.

Strawberries Scrumptious Strawberries!

I went berry picking today with my son, best friend, her hubby and her son.  We had fun and got some great strawberries.  The weather was nice and cool, no bugs and no sunburn.  I picked about 10 pounds for our house.  They are so pretty.  I will try to post some desserts this week.  It was nice going to my old work place to pick.  I spent a great portion of my life transplanting, picking, and selling produce.  It was a job that I loved.  It was great being outdoors, working with people and having a job that always threw little surprises along the way.  Memories.
