A new day...

I have decided to start blogging.  Yep...me!  I have never really followed any blogs, but I thought this would be a good way to organize my thoughts as I attempt to simplify recipes for other "Mamas" who would like to have meals which are sure to please children as well as adults.  I love a "pretty" meal, and my children appreciate it, as well; however, let's get real.  Most of us are living on what I call a "nugget budget" financially, emotionally, and with our time.  Americans are over-stretched, over-stressed, and over-starched...and we're "over It".  So, I'm setting out to provide healthy, tasty, beautiful meals for my family and friends while not adding to our "overs".  Cooking should be joyful...a time to create, relax, and enjoy.  Through this blog it is my goal to provide you with simplified recipes (after I've cooked them myself) and furthermore I want to start discussions on getting children involved in healthy nutirition decisions, turning grocery shopping into child development opportunities, and teaching children kitchen safety and cooking techniques.  We're going to have lots of fun...and will sing a song or two along the way I'm sure.  If you know my personally, you know music MUST accompany cooking in my kitchen!
Matthew 20:28--"The Son of Man did not come to be served.  He came to serve others..."
