Welcome!

Welcome to the DIY Kitchen!  This will be a blog dedicated to showing you just how easy (and cheap!) it is to make real food from scratch.
First, a little about me.  My name is Michelle and I am a stay at home mom.  I have a wonderful husband and two beautiful daughters.  My adventures in DIY cooking began about two years ago when I unexpectedly lost my job due to the downturn in the economy.  Before this, I was a busy working mom who fed her family whatever was easy, which meant a lot of processed foods.  After I lost my job, I found myself with more time and less money.  My quest to reduce our grocery budget led me to make a lot of things from scratch.  Along the way, I really fell in love with homemade, from scratch food!
Thanks for visiting my blog.  I hope you stick around and try out some of the recipes!
