Thanks so much for stopping by!

Welcome to my site! :-) I am a writer and blogger–when I am not juggling cooking, cleaning, running a “taxi service”, and way too much laundry for only two people! ;-) I am infinitely grateful to my amazing husband, who allows me to stay home to tackle these tasks, avoiding the dreaded day job.

As much as I enjoy the four seasons my hometown offers, my absolute favorite place to be is on a nice warm beach with my feet in the warm sand, the water splashing over my toes–something that tends to be obvious in my writing. Since Pennsylvania doesn’t boast a beach as one of its many attributes, I don’t get to spend quite as much time at the beach as I would like.  Even at home, I find myself barefoot more often than not–a beach bum at heart! :-) (Of course, this drives my husband crazy, given my obsession with shopping for cute shoes! ;-) )

 When not lounging on a beach (so, most days), I split my time between my office and my kitchen.  I love cooking and baking and trying out new recipes; visitors can always count on some fresh-baked treats.  I am (slightly) addicted to TV, and usually have the Food Network or HGTV on in the background, even when I am writing.

Check out my blog to find some of my favorite recipes, new projects, fun writing news, and anything else I come across that is just too crazy, cool, or cute not to pass on. :-) Feel free to join in on the conversation any time! You can also find out more about me, or check out what I am reading.  Feel free to contact me with any questions or if you just want to say hi – or you can hit me up on Twitter or Facebook.  I would love to hear from you!  :-)
