This website is dedicated to providing you with easy comfort food recipes and more. I love to cook for my family and friends and more often than not, my cooking tends to gravitate toward hearty, simple meals. Perhaps, this is founded in my Midwestern roots and growing up in a family where farming and the “farmer’s table” were a way of life.

I envision this website to be your “one stop” source for a variety of comfort food recipes and ideas. Instead of searching through numbers of cookbooks to find a specific recipe, you will be able to find it right here. Whenever possible, I have found that using fresh ingredients can make all the difference between a “ho hum” dish versus one that really satisfies. Consequently, I have included lots of information regarding using fresh herbs and vegetables in your comfort foods. It takes very little extra effort, but can turn an ordinary dish into something special that your family and friends will request time after time.

I have no formal training in cooking or baking, but rather have learned from practice, reading innumerable cookbooks, relatives, and the many wonderful women that support farm families and generously share their recipes.

Each recipe included in this site has been personally tested by me. Many are recipes that I have collected and modified through the years. Some are favorites that I have found in various cookbooks along the way. In those instances, I have cited my sources. 

When you think of comfort food, you, as do I, probably associate it with some wonderful cakes, desserts and cookies. Consequently, you will also find some of my favorite cookie and dessert recipes.

I hope that you will enjoy visiting my website and preparing some of my “comforting foods” recipes. It’s a work in progress, as I will always be adding new recipes. I also invite you to share some of your favorites or heirloom recipes.
