Cooking with Alison was created six years ago, on January 15, 2010!

I know I say this every year, but I really can’t believe that six years have passed since I created this website! A lot has happened in six years, but not nearly enough cooking and recipe sharing!

Given the current economy, it’s looking like John and I will be living in a condo for quite a bit longer than we originally planned, so this upcoming year will be about lifestyle change for us. For example, we are currently decluttering, re-organizing, and trying to live as minimally as one – who’s unwilling to let go of her kitchen gadgets – can. We’re also planning on cooking more budget-friendly (still from scratch, though) and time-saving meals. Finally, we’re trying to adopt a loose adaptation of Alton Brown’s diet into our lifestyle, permanently.

Before I share the statistics on the food blog, I want to say thank you so much for reading my blog! I still appreciate every hit, comment, like, pin, track back, and share! I hope that 2016 brings you all good health and good luck!
