Hello everyone!  It's What's Cookin' Wednesday because we are all home and we are all cooking, to some degree at least. haha.  Well I have always loved to cook and I have found out over these past several (ok mannnnny) weeks that I love it even more!  It's definitely a creative outlet but I also find that I really love watching the experts hone their craft and teach their skills.  Each of the photos posted here today is from some of my favorite chefs and home cooks that I've been following and learning soooo much from.  Ina Garten, Ree Drummond, Jeff Mauro and so many of the other talented stars of the FoodNetwork have taught me so many things that show up flavorfully in everything I've been making and baking.  Their fun and relatable styles make them fun to watch and easy to follow along with.  All of the recipes I've tried and loved can be found over on FoodNetwork and many are also posted on their Instagram feeds along with these yummy photos.  If you want even more delicious dishes, head on over to my recipe boards on Pinterest!

Hope you're having a happy day at home.  Bake up something tasty...trust me, it'll change your whole mood!

Hello everyone!  It's What's Cookin' Wednesday because we are all home and we are all cooking, to some degree at least. haha.  Well I have always loved to cook and I have found out over these past several (ok mannnnny) weeks that I love it even more!  It's definitely a creative outlet but I also find that I really love watching the experts hone their craft and teach their skills.  Each of the photos posted here today is from some of my favorite chefs and home cooks that I've been following and learning soooo much from.  Ina Garten, Ree Drummond, Jeff Mauro and so many of the other talented stars of the FoodNetwork have taught me so many things that show up flavorfully in everything I've been making and baking.  Their fun and relatable styles make them fun to watch and easy to follow along with.  All of the recipes I've tried and loved can be found over on FoodNetwork and many are also posted on their Instagram feeds along with these yummy photos.  If you want even more delicious dishes, head on over to my recipe boards on Pinterest!

It's nearly Valentine's Day and though my heart is always full of love, it's especially so this time of year.  Yes, some say this holiday can get sappy, it's true, but to me I adore any chance to celebrate love.  From the passionate to the tender, there's no greater joy than "to love and be loved".  In honor of this loveliest moment, I'm sharing some of my favorite couple shots I've found throughout the years.  Some are iconic couples known for their beautiful love story, others are famous sweethearts I admire, some are fellow bloggers with the most adorable sweeties and some are just everyday people like us.  Each one, however, magically captures the meaning of love to me.  Whether it's the sexy lean in, the gentle cupping your face with his hands, the locking eyes look or the passionate embrace each of these shots shows love at its best.  And whether you're newly smitten or have been with the one for  fifty plus years, you know what I mean when I say love is life's greatest joy.

However you plan to spend this Valentine's Day I hope you spend it in love.
