why post recipes?

I was thinking about this question yesterday as I posted the muffin recipes. I post recipes for several reasons.

  1. Maybe you're looking for a new idea to try.
  2. The recipe was so good when I made it, that I want to share it with someone else...so I try to inspire you to make it too! :)
  3. When we come back to the States for home assignment, I won't want to bring my cookbooks with me (well, I will want to bring them, but that would be silly!) - it will be easier to look on my blog for the recipes I like best! :)
I was also just thinking that many of you (those that live Stateside) probably think it's too much work to make muffins from scratch when you can just buy a pre-made mix at the store. That's not an option I have here. Almost everything I make is from scratch...muffins, cookies, pizza dough, brownies, soup...etc.
-
There are some things you just get used to...and when you have to get used to making everything from scratch because there are no boxed mixes...then you go with it. And, I must admit that I'm quite used to making recipes from scratch. Sometimes there's more work or more prep time involved...but I also love process of cooking! :)
