Cooking experiment for the month!
Alright! May 1st is already upon us and I have been thinking for the past month that for the month of May I would try out 3 new recipes a week. First I thought I would try to cook 5 new recipes, then I thought no maybe I better do 4 and now I have resolved to do 3!
Tomorrow is Planting Day
Last year I planted my first garden from seedlings, but this year I am going to try my hand at starting from seeds. Tomorrow morning, weather permitting, I am going to plant broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, zucchini squash, corn, and watermelon. I have a small garden about 4 X 14 next to my house. I will be getting eggplant and sweet potato seedlings to add to the mix and some herbs as well. I am using the "Square Foot Gardening" method. Happy Planting (and weed pulling--this was my biggest problem last year.)

Corned Beef and Cabbage
I find myself cooking the same meals over and over again, last week in honor of St. Patrick’s Day, I made Corned Beef Brisket and Cabbage. I have to say, it was great! I felt like a grownup. This is something my parents make, not me, a thirty-something mom! Below is the recipe I took from Women’s Day. And YES, I will be making this next year to celebrate my family’s Irish heritage.
