'Tis the Season or Not?

The holiday season is upon us, and I just can't get myself into the spirit. I usually love this time of year. The gatherings, the cooking, the gifts. This year it seems forced. What depresses me the most, as this is the time of year I look forward to most, after its over, not sure what there is to look forward to. It seems like I have become every one else. Not many people I know enjoy the holidays and if they do, it seems they need to talk about all the negative aspects.
And this brings me to my point, so what if I don't get into the holiday season. Is that really such a big deal that I feel that way? Not really, it's just saddens me. The holidays always was a time of year that I always enjoyed and this year, the days are like every other day.

Cooking tip of the day: Bake some of your favorite holiday treats, if only just for you.

The Joy of Cooking

A new blog, a new day. No recipes for today, unless you are looking for a recipe for disaster. Ha !Not sure how this blog will evolve, but cooking is a part of my life that I enjoy. Often I spend my time sharing things that I do not enjoy about life, but I thought it was time that I started sharing things that I love about life. The first tip is simple, but will provide you with an insight into the culinary arts that no one could provide.

Cooking tip for the day: Buy yourself a copy of the Joy of Cooking, it's the only cookbook you will ever need.
