About Molly

Where are you from?
I'm originally from Minnesota, but I currently live in southeastern Wisconsin.

What made you decide to start this blog?
I love blogs. I've been reading blogs for a while now. I started mine in 2012. It is a place for me to share things I love and hopefully inspire some creativity with my readers.

When did you start cooking?
I probably started cooking when I was 4 years old.  When I was little, my cousin came over to babysit my sister and me. She said I was standing on a chair, making scrambled eggs on the stove top.  As I got older, I found an obsession with the video camera and recording my own cooking shows.  I would pretend I was talking to an audience and teaching them the proper way to make a meal.  Surprisingly, this was before the Food Network was as popular as it is today. Sports soon took over my life and I put cooking on the back burner (no pun intended).
 
Where do you get your cooking skills from?
I would say both my grandmas and my parents. They have all inspired me to be the best I can be while always being humble. My recipes are either from them or an adaption of their recipe generally speaking. I spent most of my childhood in the kitchen watching them cook or just cooking myself. None of them really use recipes word for word, they more or less use them as guidelines and add new ingredients as they see fit. Cooking is an experience, enjoy what you do and create for others. 
   
Where do you get your craftiness from?
I don't really know to be honest! When my sister and I were little, our aunt and uncle got together with us in the fall to have weekly craft night. We made Christmas presents for family members for many years.  My craftiness evolved into loving scrap-booking, card making, and homemade decorations for all holidays.
