Warning - yummy cooking blogs can be bad for your waistline!

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Here’s a bit of self-appreciation: I am a fantastic cook. Just ask anyone who knows me and who has been fed by me, especially my guests here. One thing I was thinking about doing was adding a cooking category to this blog so I could share some of my miraculous recipes and thoughts on food. Of course I haven’t got around to it yet but in order to size up how to go about it I have been looking at how Lisa does the cooking thing on her blog Lisa Cooking.

Lisa, it looks great - a nicely clear and informative site and the photo’s of the food look just as I would expect the finished product to turn out like. Lisa does what I’m best at - good, hearty homecooking that looks as good to the eye as it would taste in the tum. One thing though; never look at these sites when you have an empty tum yourself, her lasagne rolls had the worms biting bigtime and by the time I had drooled over the garlic chicken melt I was in trouble. Actually I am going to try that recipe tonight myself - when you have sons you need to turn out food which sticks to the sides.

I also would like to give her a hug for not being too snobby to use pasta sauce in the jar - there is far too much snobbery in cooking these days - see some of those celebrity chefs and the way they expect us Mums to dig a carrot out of the bare earth rather than buy one from the local supermarket - we don’t have time guys!

Lisa, I like your site. Thanks for the nice and clear layout and not bombarding us with too many irrelevant ads - everything relates to the cooking and dosen’t overshadow the most important aspect…the food! I’m inspired now.

But I think I have gained 5 pounds just looking at that garlic chicken melt…

Lisa’s garlic chicken melt - yummm
