Yummy Spring Day Lunch

Recently, my husband went vegetarian on me and though it was daunting at first, I love creating fun meat-less meals for him. We were all working outside yesterday so I thought this would make a great (not to mention quick) lunch.

This one's as easy as it gets -- take some bread (hubby likes whole wheat) and throw some cheese, sliced cucumbers and sprouts on it, maybe even some roasted red pepper or raw onion. Cut up some strawberries and you (or at least I) have one happy hubby!

Here we go...

Well, after years of privately blogging about family and random things, I decided to start a public blog about my addiction to my kitchen. I just can't get enough cooking and baking! I don't have a gourmet kitchen by any means, but I am pretty proud of some of the creations made in there. I can't go a day without making some sort of home-cooked meal or goody so I figured I could share some pictures and recipes, maybe even some step-by-step directions along with photos and where I got the recipes from.

This year I decided to see if my baked goods could make any money and I must say I have been pleased with the result! I opened my own business in February 2009 called "The Bakers Dozen" and I provide baked goods to local businesses here in my hometown. So far it's been really fun and I would love if one day (when all of the kids are in school, of course) I could open my own bakery. But even if I did, I would still be addicted to my own kitchen!
