It's My SITS Day!!

Welcome to everyone who is stopping by from SITS!

If you're a regular reader and you're not familiar with SITS, it's a community of women-bloggers set out to create a community and lend each other a helping hand.




If you're visiting from SITS, well hello! Nice to meet you!

I live in the best city in the world, Chicago, with my wonderful husband

Chris and Katie New Years Eve 2010 soft


...and our overly friendly cat, Simon.

Christmas Simon 2010


If you haven't guessed by now, I have three loves (aside from the men in my life): Food, Wine, & Mod Podge. I'm so blessed that my husband is my partner in the kitchen and loves to create new flavor combinations just as much as I do. And we love to do it all with a glass of wine in hand! When I'm not cooking, I'm always crafting, trying out new tricks and mediums, though Mod Podge will always have a special place in my heart.

You can check out my many recipes here, and you'll quickly learn that I love to tweak recipes to make them my own!

Also feel free to browse through my many crafts. Anything from stamp embossing to sewing, and of course plenty of Mod Podge, I hope you'll find something new and fun to try!

Letter k


Thanks again for stopping by, enjoy having a look around!

    Congrats on your SITS Day!

    I love your blog...lots of ideas and projects I can put on my To Do list.

    I love your way of cooking....I cook the same way...I love looking through cookbooks and cooking shows to get inspiration and then make my own version. It is so much more fun then following recipes, isn't it?
