Snippets of How I Cook . . .
“I create my own recipes, or Google many recipes until I find something I can mix together into a meal.”
“I avoid measuring as much as possible and substitute on a whim.”
“I follow an age-old family recipe that I’ve been eating since childhood.”

Are you tired of trying to find recipes only to discover that they are full of personal snippets and ads?
I usually decide to cook something on a whim. Then I start to Google what I want to cook only to find it takes 30 minutes to find a recipe by the time I have navigated the blog post itself and all the adds. The list of ingredients is at the bottom of a long post filled with pics, adds, and content.
Do you ever read a gardening blog and think “Yeah, like I have the skills, space, money, time, etc. to do that!? I’m definitely not perfect. We are real people living in a world of work, kids, school, etc. The pictures and directions on this blog are taken in a authentic household, not in a studio for a magazine cover.
About
Concocting Creations is about me sharing my kitchen with you. The pictures aren’t staged. The recipes are tried. The blog isn’t waged. The gardening is bona fide.
