I am not Martha Stewart

11:25 AM Edit This 6 Comments »
My husband's favorite joke when people look at the publications I'm in is that "she's Martha Stewart without the jail time." Sadly, other than that I'm crafty, I'm nothing like Martha Stewart. Especially in the kitchen of all places. I hate to cook...it's not like a scrapbook page that can be admired for years - food is consumed and so is your creation. So I don't have much patience for it. The one exception is that I love having Thanksgiving in my home. Last year was the first year I hosted it, and this year I didn't even think about it because of our renovations. Still, it was a special request of my MIL that I make my sausage stuffing. Here I am sauteeing the onions and celery. And I did allow myself to enjoy the whole process while realizing it would all be gone in 24 hours.

Hey...did you change your blog template? I like it a lot... You may not be Martha Stewart in the kitchen but you certainly are in the scrap room!
