It takes gumption - and a little honey.

Have you ever wondered if our recipes are as easy as they seem? Well, I have news for you – they are!

For Valentine’s Day this year, I decided to take my own advice by making a meal for my sweetheart, instead of going out to dinner or buying a box of chocolates. I waded through our database, looking at recipe after recipe. Everything looked delicious, but I was intimidated by some of the recipe directions. (I am not a novice in the kitchen, but I am by no means highly skilled either!)

I decided to bite the bullet and to just pick something that sounded good to my taste buds – and, boy, I was surprised by the results (and so was my “honey”)!  In just a short time, I had an entire meal on the table that was scrumptious and filled with love. And to top it off, my beau was impressed and touched that I took the time and care to make him a meal.

What was I so nervous about?! As Julia Child once said, “Don’t fear the duck” – meaning, don’t let your fears stand in the way of a delicious (if not adventurous!) meal. All it takes is the gumption to get started… and maybe a little honey!

Happy Cooking!
