First things first...I’m not a professional chef and I’ve never worked in the food service industry...but I love to cook and we all love to eat!! I’ve spent many hours in my kitchen, experimenting, creating and building this collection of recipes. My motivation for sharing these recipes is to ensure that these recipes are not lost through the passage of time. Some have been passed down from generation to generation. Also, I wanted to be able to share with friends and family, and anyone else that is interested in tried and true recipes, made from the heart with healthy ingredients.

This site was inspired by my biggest fan and resident culinary guinea pig Robert (Southern Alberta Artist and web designer extraordinaire!) He suggested this would be an easy way to look up recipes when I’m wandering around my local grocery store or Farmer’s Market, wondering what to make for dinner and racking my brain for the list of ingredients!! Now I can easily pull up my recipe for Blue Salmon or Country Pie...depending on my mood!

The origin of these recipes vary from ones that have been handed down from family members, to those I’ve found in books, as well as some original creations of my own. The recipes provided on the “Feasting Friends” page are voluntary contributions from friends, and I’m thrilled to include each and every one of them here! I’ve shared many happy hours and outstanding meals with these friends and each and every recipe includes happy memories in the ingredients.

Cooking should be fun and fulfilling! So relax! Experiment! Go wild! Be brave! Release that inner chef!!
