New Colors... New Recipes...

NOTE: We've updated our color scheme! Well at least until I can figure out how to incorporate the iPhone template here! How many of you have an iPhone - I love my iPhone!!!

I love the color blue too! It seems to have this calming spa quality to it for me at least. Plus, how can you beat the beautiful color of the sky and the ocean.

Reminder... If a new recipe is posted and just common knowledge info, PLEASE always take the time to READ the recipe through BEFORE you actually make the recipe!

I can't tell you how many times I have heard the stories... I didn't know I had to put this or that in the fridge overnight BEFORE I could start the recipe, I don't have this much time to make this now, I don't have these ingredients, I didn't know it would take this long to make! How can Rachel do this in 30 minutes, etc. etc.

Remember Rachel RAY Is providing you with healthy, life style changing recipes, she knows how to make her own recipes, she has a crew that helps her, and she knows her way around her kitchen! Who cares if it takes us 10-15 minutes longer - we will be eating a healthy, delicious dish! Also Rachel use time management - she, unlike some of us, can and does gauge her cooking and cook multiple things at once - so timing, technique, and learning will help us to improve our 30 minute timing skills the next time! DO NOT GET DISCOURAGED!!!! Cooking is a passion, and remember to teach someone as you go! Yourself, your kids, nieces, nephews, and husband or wife! Have fun - read, measure, experiment together - create family bonds and learn every subject together! Enjoy :)

KIDS!!!

Well, As Rachel Ray would say.... KIDS ROCK!!! Yes they do!
Kids are awesome, talented, and full of energy! Energy that we many times need to direct!
So why not direct them into the kitchen and instead of them asking what's for lunch, or dinner for that matter - let them help and eventually do dinner!

That's right! No matter if they are 2-102 we can all learn, we can all help, and we can all do dinner!

Cooking is every subject matter as far as teaching goes - so let's making teaching ROCK! Have fun!
Think about it - Cooking is Math, Science, Reading, English, History, Art, Spelling, Photography, well it can even be about Religion, Spanish, German, Swedish, Italian, and experiences.... you get the idea! Cooking creates a tangible metaphor and helps explore a very diverse teaching world that will open up many doors! Try IT!!! Just COOK or BAKE with your kids today! :)
