We Like to Cook!
http://www.welike2cook.com/
Our lives revolve around the kitchen. This is not by necessity, but by choice. We have had many wonderful times in our kitchen. Other families have bigger, fancier kitchens and yet they still eat out in restaurants most evenings. We actually cook in our kitchen. We love to experiment with new ingredients and have tried to instill a love for food and exploration in our two boys. Most importantly, we enjoy spending time together doing what we all love best: cooking and eating!
