We’re almost ready to be back! The end of the kitchen reno is in sight!
We started here (this picture is taken from my living room):
we went to here:
Pretty soon, the Kitchen will be finished and we’ll be back on our menu planning, money saving track! And boy, will our pocketbook need it [...]
and boy, is it SO much nicer. A little late on the blogging resuming (and you have my sincere apologies) but I must say that in my innocence, I had no idea that the move would be this difficult.
We are in our new house, yes, but unpacked? ha. The kitchen, except for the big [...]
I know I had mentioned this in an earlier post, but as you can see by the lack of posts this past week, I just have no time to blog right now. We are moving (as of now) June 12-14. I expect to be able to resume blogging on Monday the 15th.
My kitchen will be [...]
As a resource for MGCK’s readership, I’ll be utilizing the “tags” feature here as a searchable index of ingredients. For example, if I were to make Chicken Parmesan, I’d tag it with chicken breasts, mozzarella, tomato sauce. That way, if you’re floundering (hahaha, no pun intended, but I’m so funny) for ideas based on [...]
It all started as a New Year's resolution for 2009. I wanted to start trying menu planning, a concept that I had stumbled across while looking for dinner ideas online. I dove into it with energy and unlike most diets, saw success immediately. The success only made me more interested in how I could improve, what new recipes I could find, etc. I started using my family blog for menu planning posts and it kind of started to take over. So, I decided to give my culinary fumblings their own home- and mygrandcentralkitchen.com was born.
Why "my grand central kitchen?" Well, I have 2 kids that are about 20 months apart. I have a husband who works from home. Cooking is a hobby for me. So you could say that aside from the playroom, the kitchen is the busiest room in my house and usually looks it. ;) It feels a bit like Grand Central Station, especially between 4 and 7 pm.
I hope that this blog gives me even more inspiration for my own home and the ability to inspire others in the kitchen, as well. I'll be posting not just menu planning and recipe links, but also interesting things I find online, things on my wishlist and recommendations. And who knows where it might go from there. :)
I certainly hope you enjoy the ride.
