Fork Knife Spoon is for all my friends who’ve repeatedly said “why don’t you do a food blog?” Well, here it is, my first posting. (Marylee, you deserve the prize for being the most persistent.) My goal is to get at least 12 followers, just like Jesus. Or maybe I should go for a baker’s dozen? So help me out, friends! Follow a gal!

Friends sometimes describe me as being like Martha Stewart, but that’s hardly fair. After all, I’ve never done prison time. Seriously, Martha’s my idol, and I’m no where close to possessing her domestic creativity. And speaking of Martha, I love to try her recipes, as well as recipes from a variety of other magazines and websites, and then tweak ingredients and process to suit my family’s taste. So that’s what you’ll see on the pages of this blog – not typically my own creations, but my tests and trials of what the REAL food geniuses out there are doing. As my day job is as a Communication & Marketing Director, I know the importance of giving credit where credit is due, and originators of recipes will be acknowledged!

Another passion of mine is glamming up a table for an event, whether it’s a small table for a family birthday party, or a dozen large tables for a ladies Christmas tea at church. You’ll see pics of table settings and centerpieces, invites and banners. Frugal is often my focus, so budget-minded folks will appreciate the posts. (Hey, I was Pinterest-y long before there was Pinterest. Just ask my mother, who I’m sure once muttered, “Cheryl, what on earth are you saving all these tomato soup cans for?” It’s hard for a clean freak to put up with creative clutter.)

Anywho…welcome to my blog, and thanks for following!

Cheryl

  1. Such a fun thing to do. Vienna has one called Tongue-in-cheek. …you might enjoy ‘checking’ it out ☺

  2. I neglected my cherry tomato plants this year so l have a supply of green tomatoes. Do you have ideas, other than frying them? Would they be worth pickling?
