Hello and Welcome!Allow me to take a moment to introduce myself and tell you a little about my site. I am Carolyn, a stay-at-home mother of three who loves to cook, bake and eat. I've always enjoyed tinkering with recipes to suit my own needs or tastes, and I started this blog as a way to share my recipes and thoughts with friends and family. However, my blog took on more purpose in April of 2010 when I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes. I had gestational diabetes with my last pregnancy and expected it to go away after the birth of my daughter, given my relatively healthy lifestyle. It did not, and I have had to learn cooking and baking all over again, this time low carb.
Many of the recipes featured here are low carb and/or gluten free, because I am experimenting with alternative ingredients and trying to make healthy meals and treats that everyone can enjoy. I also post conventional recipes, however, because I have a family of five to feed and I still love to make goodies to share with friends and family. I always try to make it very clear which recipes are low carb and/or gluten free, so that readers with dietary restrictions can easily find recipes that are suitable for them.
I hope you enjoy what you see here. Do feel free to comment and if you would like to contact me directly with comments or suggestions, you may email me at carketch29 AT yahoo (dot) com.
