Erin

Welcome to our new blog! My name is Erin and I'm a mom of three who loves to cook (and mostly eat!). I haven't always been a foodie. In fact, I remember a time when I would set out to make the easiest and fastest thing possible, usually involving frozen pre-made meals from the grocery store. I met Alex a couple of years ago through Twitter and food blogs, and when we friended each other on Facebook we found ourselves chatting often about the question of the day: what's for dinner at your house? Through exchanging recipes and cooking experiences, it seemed we were inspiring each other to be better cooks for our families. Starting a blog together sounded like the next logical step.


Let me introduce Alex...

This was the next logical step. It had been in the back of my mind to do a food oriented blog for a while but just never got to it. So sharing recipes one day we started talking about how we've each wanted to do a blog. LIGHT BULB!!! Why not create one that we both could contribute to with our love for food and cooking? So here goes "The Amateur Eaters Project". Now for a little about me. I'm a dad to four very different girls. I started getting into cooking while watching the tv cooking shows. Till this day I still yell "BAM" when I season a piece of meat. My interest in it has grown ever since. The only difference now is that I cook and have critics built into the household.
