My name is Cathy and I live in the beautiful State of Maine.  I spent 47 years living in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, before getting married and moving to Texas for 10 years.  After my husband retired, we moved to the East Coast to once again experience all four seasons and to be as close to Canada as we could be.  Mud season in Maine is my least favorite of all (wait, is that really a season?), but fortunately it doesn’t last too long.  

I’ve never tried beer, coffee or tea.  (That’s right, a Canadian that has never tasted beer!).  And for the record, I don’t say (a-boot) but I do admittedly say (a-boat).  I love baking, cooking, dancing, ice skating, making crafts and jewelry, collecting magazines (that I’ll probably never read again yet can’t seem to part with either), thrift stores, buying and wearing vintage jewelry…okay, any kind of jewelry…and I sure do love chocolate!  

I’ve been very fortunate over the years to meet some people I truly admire like, Joanna Gaines, Gesine Prado-Bullock, Ashley Meldridge (Maine Cabin Masters) and to spend time in beautiful Laurel, Mississippi, The Drummond Ranch in Oklahoma, and attending a workshop in Waco, Texas with Joanna & Chip Gaines.  Once I get over my initial starstruck moment I realize they’re just everyday people that are very talented, humble and kind.

I hope you find some recipes to use for your family and if you do, feel free to drop me a line letting me know how they turned out.
