Welcome to This Dish is Delish!

Help Yourself

Have any of you ever found yourself...

-Searching through books, binders, boxes and piles of handwritten, mismatched, chicken scratched recipes just to find that one dessert your mom used to make that you're sure must be here somewhere.
-Improvising to fill in the missing ingredients or vital measurements in that prize winning cookie recipe that has been used so many times the butter smudges have made the type magically disappear.
-Tired of your typical go-to dishes and know that you are capable of making a variety of things, you just can't remember what they are.
-Swallowed in a mountain of cookbooks that only have a few recipes that you even like, dreaming of other ways to make better use of that cupboard space.

These are a few of the reasons why I decided to create this blog. Most recipes are not original, but honestly how many are? Some are from friends or cookbooks, some were found online, others are family recipes. I have personally made and sampled each recipe and love them all. They are seriously tasty. Each of the pictures were taken by me or my hubby; thus the amateur photos. We are not photographers, but it is always nice to see what it is your are trying to make. I love to access my recipes with my iPod, and someday I will make a book for my kiddos.

Please feel free to share any recipes with your friends, and let me know if there is something you like. Dig in!
