Recipe Challenge

Now that we are finally settled into our own place again I decided that it was time to buckle down on our bad eating out habit. It's always been convenient and fast and especially nice with all the moving around we've done in the past 2 years, but eating out really adds up and I hate dragging Weslie out to eat a ton. She's much rather play at home in her jammies than be strapped into a high chair. So I decided that I was going to cook. Yes me, in the kitchen. I pulled out all of the recipe books we got from our wedding and marked all the potential recipes. I promised myself I would go through and make all of them so we would have to start eating at home again. At times it has been a challenge. We've had lots of failures, and I'm going to blame them on the recipes, but the successes have been well worth it. I figure now is as good a time as any to start building a good collection in my cook book. Once we start having more kids I will have even less time to experiment! It's a work in progress but here are some pictures of some of the treats I snapped!
