Introduction	I am a divorced Dad living in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. When not working I am raising a very independent and amazing 10 year old daughter. When Taylor was born, I knew that I wanted to feed her healthy foods that did not come in a jar. So I learned how to make baby food from scratch. Like all kitchen cooks, my first endeavors into cooking were not a great success. I have burned many dishes, over-seasoned, under-seasoned and forgot to include key ingredients. But over time, I have learned to follow recipes and reproduce with success the intent of the author. I spent a lot of time learning sauces and reductions because it seemed important to the process. I enjoy reading cookbooks and often use the recipes as springboards for my own creative ideas about food. Sometimes I even get it right! I cook primarily for my 10 year old daughter and my friends. I started this blog with my daughter just for fun and as a way to share stories and ideas with family and friends. I am not pretentious enough to think that I have anything new or unique to add to the world regarding food. But it's fun for us and we hope you enjoy it.
