About Me

I'm the beginner housewife.

A twenty-five year old women's fiction writer who is tracking her way through marriage, one topic at a time.

On this blog I'll give you tips on decorating your house on a budget, getting ready for holidays or parties, and sharing recipes that I love, I try, and I fail miserably at.

This will be my first time testing out the kitchen. My husband is normaly the one who does the cooking, but this is my attempt to become slightly more domesticated.

It's a way to see exactly how far I'm willing to go and how many times I fall on my ass.

Now I must warn you, seeing as I'm a beginner if you're looking for expertise in the cooking department, you should make your way over to Paula Deen - she's going to get you there. I'll be one to aim high but fall short (at least the first few times I test out the recipes).

Tomorrow: My attempt making Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

  6. Cooking disasters are always fun, unless you're the one cleaning up. I once had a blender do an imitation of Vesuvius when I was trying to do a Borsht (sp?). Hmm, I always wanted the kitchen to be decorated in purplish splots

  8. I don't want to prevent your potential blunders which are great material for writing, but I highly recommend Martha Stewart's Everyday Food magazine. It's about $12 for the whole year.

    You think Martha Stewart = complicated, but these recipes usually have few ingredients and are made with whole foods and spices. For example: cut up a sweet potato and a tomato, drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper and bake for 20 minutes. So easy and it looks and tastes gourmet.
