In deciding to start this blog, never would I have thought that the most difficult stumbling block would be choosing a title. I must have tried 50 different names before I could find one that wasn't already taken. I finally settled on "Raining in the Sugar." Raining in the sugar is a term used when referring to the adding of sugar in a slow and steady stream. That may just well be the pace to which I add to this blog, slow and steady, but we shall see!
My blog's purpose is to serve as a way for me to share some of my passions; cooking, photography, and crafts.
Cooking ~ As a collector of cookbooks and recipes, I have some favorite recipes that I plan on sharing. My cooking style is mostly simple. I believe less is more when it comes to food, letting each ingredient shine on its own. If I do make a more complex recipe, I will break it down step by step. I currently subscribe to various magazines, bon appetit, Food and Wine, Cuisine at Home, and Martha Stewart Living that provide some delicious recipe inspirations.
Photography ~ I LOVE making pictures! Creating this blog gives me an opportunity to photograph my food, but I will also share other photos as well. I like to try to make the mundane look interesting. So I'll be practicing my craft and hopefully improving it along the way.
Crafts ~ I am a craft junky! I think I have tried just about everything crafty, decoupage, sewing, knitting, crocheting, scrapbooking, etc., etc.. I'll share links to some cool stuff that you can easily do yourself. One of my new favorite sites, Pinterest.com, is a crafter's dream!
Super Bowl XLVI is this weekend, which makes it the perfect time for me to share my Baked Buffalo Chicken Wings. Delicious, easy and excellent any day of the week. Buffalo sauce optional for those who don't want them spicy. I'm also making some cupcakes that will showcase the team I'm rooting for!
Enjoy!
