I’m Mindy and I love cooking and baking. I have been married to my best friend since 1991 and we have two 
daughters. Our oldest is married and lives on her own and our youngest remains at home.
We are a working middle class family, so getting the most out of our money is important.
I try to cook six nights a week. I am always on the look out for healthy, affordable meals. I am a home-cook with no special training or equipment. The recipes that I make, some old and some new, and put on this blog will appeal to most people, and will contain ingredients that you can buy at any grocery store.
I have the best sous chef around, my husband, Lee. He chops, he slices, he dices, and he even cleans up when we are done.
We have raised our kids to be honest, trustworthy people, and we lead by example. We strongly believe in “The Golden Rule” and try to always see things from all perspectives.
I have to mention that I have had the cutest Beagle/Bichon mix dog, named Jenna, that I adore. Sadly, she passed away in April 2019.
The purpose of this blog is to share my experiences in the kitchen with you.
