Welcome to Adventures In The Kitchen
Thank you for visiting my site. If you were here in person I’d offer you a cupcake or cook you a meal. This a blog, created by me, Cheri Liefeld and is where I share the recipes I am making in my kitchen. I believe much of life takes place around the table. It is not just about food, it is a place we share our dreams, our days, our disappointments. Relationships are strengthened, trust is built in that time we share both in the kitchen and around the table.
I fell in love with cooking when I was very young. I still remember trying out recipes for my family from the Betty Crocker’s Cooking With Kids cookbook. My mom really encouraged and humored me during my early adventures. The funny thing is, I was quite the picky eater. You could count on your hands the foods I would eat, most of them not super nutritious.
Over the years cooking has broadened my palate. While I am a foodie at heart and love each step of the process; one of my greatest joys is sharing it with family and friends. Meals are where great conversation can happen, where life is shared. Whether it is in the home or at a restaurant, food brings people together and memories are created.
As a former personal chef and cooking instructor my passion is to encourage people to get in the kitchen. I love to explore new recipes, new restaurants and new foods. When I taste something interesting at a restaurant I run home and try to recreate it. My goal is that readers will be encouraged to get in the kitchen and create their own adventures.
Last year I started my career as a freelance recipe developer and food writer, working with the brand that started my love of cooking, Betty Crocker. If you are interested in finding out more about working with me this is a good place start.
You can also see a sampling of my work here.
There is nothing more fun than encouraging little chefs. I teach classes for both children and adults. My niece and I spend lots of time in the kitchen. This is one of our recent adventures.
This year I have started a second blog, Skinny Chick Recipes, focusing on healthy, low fat food. My hope is that if you haven’t, you will fall in love with cooking as I have. Cheri
