Hello! Thanks for stopping by from the Ultimate Blog Party. My name is SnoWhite and my husband affectionately goes by Frog Prince.
Frog Prince and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary last July by packing up our tiny apartment and moving 600+ miles away. Since then, we've been busy renovating our kitchen, and transitioning to new jobs.
I'm a full time assistant biology professor and Dr. Frog Prince works with numbers {he's an educational statistics man}. Early in our marriage we began to teach ourselves how to cook from scratch. This was motivated mainly by a desire to eat better, which we found incredibly challenging to do when I have a severe allergy to tree nuts.
Now, we make everything from bread and crackers to yogurt and ice cream in our kitchen. This blog houses over 800 of the recipes we've tasted and created in the past few years.
Our recipes follow three simple policies:
- They use everyday ingredients
- They are healthy
- They are easy to prepare and contain step-by-step photo instructions
Here's a sampling of some of our favorites:
{made with applesauce}
{uses a white bean "Alfredo" sauce}
Each week, I share recipes, our menu plan, and have an opportunity for you to link up the delicious recipes you've bookmarked each week in Friday Favorite Finds! Occasionally, there's a kitchen tip or two, and recipes pulled out from the archives.
As we've learned to cook our foods from scratch, Frog Prince and I have discovered a joy in cooking food for ourselves and for others. God has showed me, especially, how to find joy in caring for my family by making wholesome, healthy foods from simple ingredients that nourish my family. By sharing our recipes with you, it's our hope that you might find joy in your kitchen too!
Do you like to cook? What are your favorite and least favorite foods or meals to make? I'd love to learn more about you and your cooking experiences whether you're just stopping by today or have been reading along here for a few weeks or a few years!
