I am a food enthusiast living in Northeastern Ohio. Having lived in several states, before landing in Ohio, I have experienced many different food cultures. My belief is that food nourishes our bodies, hearts and minds. Food brings people together, there is nothing better than enjoying a good meal with family and friends. That being said, I have stacks of recipes from over the decades in 3-ring binders, old cookbooks and digital recipes on my computer. My original thought was to catalog all of them on my computer and get rid of the binders and such. My next thought was to share them. If they are on this website, they were worth sharing I hope you enjoy them as much as we do! (I will try my best to credit the original creator/author of the recipe if I can).
