Welcome to my kitchen! I'm Louanne, wife to Brett, mom to Andrew, a librarian by day, and a wanna-be chef at home. The kitchen is my favorite place to be in our house. It's the gathering spot for my family and friends. It's my fortress of solitude when I need to think and destress. My kitchen is also where the magic happens! Some of the food you'll find here are adaptations of published recipes. More often than not, however, the food is my own, based on culinary memories from my childhood from which I've created a recipe to share with family, friends, and you, a welcome guest in my kitchen. So, please, stay for a visit, share your thoughts, and enjoy the food.
