About me

My passion is food whether it is cooking, baking, eating, talking about it or reading about it. Cooking for family and friends is my way of showing some love. I hope you take a look at my blog to see what's cooking in the Midwest!

Cooking Influences

My mother. She was a fantastic cook who loved to entertain and always cooked from scratch; no cake mixes and bottled sauces for her! I loved to stand beside her as she cooked and explained procedures to me. She was well-known for her delicious pies; her flaky pie crust. I have not mastered that yet, still working on it...

      Hi, Amos! Thank you and right back at ya! That's cool---not too many people have heard of the tiny town of Cary! When I was a kid growing up in Ohio, we spent many summer vacations around different areas of MI and just recently, hubby and I went to Saugatuck. MI is a beautiful state! I will definitely be looking around at all your recipes and trying some of them out. Happy cooking! Pam

        Hi, Pam. I am happy to connect with you on C-E-S. I know Cary and the McHenry/Lake County area very well. Always loved the Fox River Valley area. I look forward to many exchanges with you and hope you'll find something to try from my postings. Best regards, Amos

            Good to find you Pam! My family is all from the mid-west. I am the odd one out by living in California, but I carry my midwest roots in my heart!! You might like my blog, The Heritage Cook (http://www.theheritagecook) because I blend the two worlds together. Some new twists on old favorites!
