Making Messes

I've been making my fair share of kitchen messes this week. While I haven't gotten around to loading photos of some recipes I've been working on lately, I can show you what my kitchen looks like every couple days...


Why? Because I have been testing recipes, styling, and photographing for a recipe site under redesign, which I will reveal soon enough when the site has  re-launched. I'm very excited to see how things turn out, it sounds like there are a lot of talented people involved, and I would know... I have been making their recipes. There are so many interesting flavor combinations to be revealed that take advantage of spices and herbs and use them in new, innovative ways, I can't wait to share once the site is up!
