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 >

Halloween Cake Pops

I made the pumpkins in the Halloween (Trick-or-Treat) series of cake pops. These are absolutely adorable but much more so when Bakerella makes them than me. I enjoyed making them and learned a lot and I think that the next attempt will be much more successful. I will watch the consistency of the cake when I'm mixing in the frosting (as she recommends) to make sure it stays sticky and not add too much cake. I had a very hard time finding the edible markers and had several that were dry (even though they were just purchased) so test your materials first! Learn from me!

I will definitely make them again and have filed all of her cute CUTE cake pops so I will have many different ones to chose from.
