About me: I live in Colorado and cook for my family; my husband, my 20-year-old daughter (who is in college), and my 18-year-old son (a VERY picky eater). I love cookbooks and have quite a collection but am always looking to add more. I have been known to take a cookbook to bed and read it before falling asleep. Lately, I have found myself getting a lot of recipes off the internet and not using my cookbooks much. I would like to change this. I am anxious for this site to take off (and it will) and for the volume of recipe reviews to grow. It is such a great idea!

Skillet Blueberry Cobbler from Weber's Real Grilling

Excellent. We did overcook it slightly on the grill but we just need to get better at grill baking! Served it to a group of 5 and everyone loved it. read more >

Bruschetta : page 34

This is a great Bruschetta recipe. Simple and tasty - just like it should be. I make a few hours before I need and let it sit on the counter until I'm ready to use it. Perfect make ahead item.

Very good. Very easy. Do put the cream and chocolate in the pan at the same time to melt. The first time I made this I melted the chocolate first and then added the cream. Mistake. The chocolate seized and it was not pretty. It worked beautifully when I put them in together and heated them together.
