Eating out, while convenient, can be both expensive and time consuming.

We are bombarded with images of luscious looking food. It seems that every commercial or ad or billboard shows us wonderful looking food – and it is always available quickly and easily. Families don’t/can’t take time to cook at home from scratch. We didn’t use a lot of prepared snack foods.

There’s something incredibly fulfilling about plunging my hands into dough, and smelling fresh food cooking in our oven. When my family is at home, and we’re all tired, a warm meal on a cold day can revive us all. In addition, food is a primary form of entertainment for my husband and I.
