Professionally, I’m a web developer. The corollary is that this site will always be a disaster. Alignments are off, pictures are missing, and I didn’t ask anyone what categories they would expect. I cook for love and relaxation, and I record recipes here so I won’t lose them myself. There have been too many frantic searches for the scrap of paper with my mother’s recipe for birthday cake, only to find it stuck behind the books, months later. Peanut Butter cookies are filed under “P for Peanut Butter”, and I had to tell the kids I entirely forgot how to make shawarma, which we ate three times a week for a few months when I was developing the spice mix. I’ll have to re-develop that one…
I’ll try to use plenty of tags and categories to help you find recipes you might want, but ultimately this web site is for me and those I love who might someday care about my recipes. I did finally organize my paper scraps into three ring binders last year, after three decades of cooking, so it’s possible some day I’ll organize this site. Until then, perhaps check under “Vegetarian” for the cookie recipes…I mean, it’s not wrong.
