About
Hi, I'm Dawn and I love to cook. I started this blog to inspire families to eat together by providing easy and fresh recipes, tips and ideas that I hope will help bring your families together again.
As a wife of a fire captain who works 48 hours straight and mother of three daughters, having dinner time together is really important to me. When my daughters were young, I used to make the same meals over and over. I realize now that the reason most families do this is because the recipes are familiar, so you don't have to change or learn anything new. Also, everyone's schedules are so busy, you cook what is fast and familiar. I'm hoping to change that philosophy.

- Balsamic Marinated Flank Steakon Jun 18, 2014 in Beef Grilled or BBQ Balsamic Vinegar easy Flank Steak Fresh Herbs Garlic Grilled Olive Oil SimpleFlank steak is one of the best cuts of beef for marinating and grilling. It is relatively lean so it takes to a marinade well. I think it isn’t used as much as let’s say a sirloin but it can be just as flavorful. Just make sure to cook it...
