What did you make in January that was memorable? Any cooking challenges you’ve tackled recently?
This month I pushed myself out of my comfort zone by:
canning and making jelly (I canned!)
making stovetop jelly
posting more savory recipes and dinner recipes (despite bad lighting, no lighting, a hungry and impatient family at times, savory was happened and was documented)
I posted eggs (twice) and had never in 3 years posted any egg recipes
I posted a shrimp recipe and had never in 3 years posted any shellfish recipes
I took food “holidays” like Superbowl, Mardi Gras, Valentine’s, and St. Patrick’s Day to heart and planned recipes in advance and according to the holidays
What’s on your to-make list?
Plenty is on mine. Ever been on Pinterest? Many hours each week are spent looking, surfing, clicking, dreaming, pondering; and I love every second of it.
Thanks for the Green Smoothie eBook Giveaway entries
This butternut squash bread is amazing!

My biggest challenge in the kitchen this month has been TIME. There is never enough for all of the recipes that I want to make!
Time. I need 34, not 24, hours in a day.
My to-make list is insane. Seriously. I need help.
Wow I must try that Spicy baked eggs and hash brown casserole! Sounds delish and such a unique and creative idea! Thanks for sharing…. You certainly have covered such a great variety of goodies for the month of Feb! xo
glad it looks good to you!
What a great collection! And speaking of collections, yes Pinterest is entirely too captivating. You must be pinning some great recipes ;)
Pinterest is one of the coolest things ever! I love finding new recipes there. I have seriously got to start making more savory recipes, but sweet ones are just too much fun.
i’m so looking frrwaod to see how September turns out! one of my favorite months of the year, because the Nashville weather starts to cool down + i can get back into making soups, stews + other fall-weather comfort foods. also, the NFL season starts back up, which makes my husband a happy guy (+ gives me more free time to catch up with girlfriends, ha!)amy @ fearless homemaker recently posted..
I made kimchi!
That was my big accomplishment in the cooking world this month. I also didn’t go insane. Well, I came close but I didn’t. that is an even bigger accomplishment.
