Recipe Blog

I have created a new blog - yes I seem to have way too much time on my hands :)

It is a "recipe blog" that will be a collection of what I am whipping up in my kitchen. It is called none other than: Recipes from HT's Kitchen. I am hoping to share with you old & new recipes as I make them week to week.

Why did I start a recipe blog?

There are a few reasons: 1) I have 4 different areas I keep recipes: in a recipe box, in a binder, on Pinterest & laying around cluttering my kitchen counter. It was finally time to get organized. I went through all my recipes & weeded out the ones I have never attempted nor will I try to attempt, threw away the ones the hubby didn't care for & finally filed all the recipes thrown into my binder under specific categories. 2) I have a lot of co-workers & friends who are always asking me to share a dip recipe or a dessert recipe or meals for the crock-pot so instead of having to write the recipe down each time I can just post it here for them to print off & share with others. 3) keeping all my "favorite" recipes in one spot & de-cluttering my kitchen makes me happy!

Where do my recipes come from?

The collection of recipes I am going to post include my own recipes, old family favorites, recipes from friends, recipes from other blogs & recipes that I have collected over the years. I am in no way a professional cook or baker. Cooking & baking is just one of my passions & is a huge stress-reliever for me. I am forever looking for that one recipe that is a "keeper" to file away with the rest of my "tried & true" recipes. All these recipes I will be posting have actually been made in my kitchen at one time or another & undergo careful scrutiny by my husband, co-workers & friends - none of whom have any credentials other than the fact that they like to eat :)

I am always bringing in "treats" for co-workers or am being asked what I brought for lunch as everyone at work knows I cook & bake ALL the time. Hey, I have no children so I have time to do this stuff ;) I am often asked for the recipes so now with this new blog I can direct co-workers & friends to my blog website rather than write it down for them. Feel free to try these yummy concoctions for yourself & definitely share the recipes with others.

Hope you enjoy making & eating these recipes as much as I do :)
