Kids Are Taking Over The Kitchen

February 28, 2012 By 2 Comments

When I was growing up, the only cooking show that I was even vaguely familiar with was Julia Child's PBS show and, to be honest, I was more interested in watching MTV.  Cooking and I never really got along until about 10 years ago.  As a "latch-key" kid, memories of cooking with my mother are very rare - I do remember doing the dishes tho.  I remember coming home after school and, I'll confess, I was not a stranger to the "mustard sammie" and other things I could muster together that did not … [Read more...]

Cooking In Stilettos Blog Tag

This past month has kicked my butt in ways I didn't even know could exist. Between all the medical drama with the Sous Pug, balancing the day to day with hospital visits, dog nutrition research (home cooked diet v. canned dog food), learning medical jargon, etc., I am wiped out. Shortly after the Sous Pug went home, he was rushed back to the hospital and had to undergo quite the surgery and had to stay there for basically another week to recover. Officially the Sous Pug is home for good. … [Read more...]
