In her first post, she talked about the difficulties of parenting and how cooking is helping her bond with Glenn’s children with his first wife Jane, James, 11, and Holly, nine.
“I have the best step-kids I could have ever wished for and I pass on to them my traditions and recipes,” Sara wrote.
“They are like I once was to my mum, my little helpers. Being a parent is the hardest job on earth and with its many rewards it has its responsibilities, such as teaching good table manners (very frustrating at times) and teaching kids to eat right and be healthy (the list is endless).”
Sara says she started the blog to try to make cooking more of a hobby than a chore. She hopes her words will inspire other women to share tips and recipes online.
“I’m very excited about this new journey and I can’t wait to learn from other mothers and homemakers any new tips to make my life easier, more fun and taste better,” Sara wrote.
“We can share info about cool recipes and products you have tried that work for you and your families love. This is a loving blog where we share the same love as we do when cooking for our loved ones, so please join in.
“So folks let’s get ready to cook, laugh, share and why not have a glass while doing it.”
