We're the Murphy's

Jeff, Michelle, Charlie, Dottie, Effie & Jack!

Neither one of us was a great cook when we got married. We existed mostly on takeout, with the occasional meal in a bag or frozen pizza to fill in the blanks. That started to change after our first child, and by the time we hit number three, takeout really wasn't an option anymore. We began to find ourselves in the kitchen more often than not, scratching our heads and scouring google for what to make for dinner. What we realized, is that while there are some excellent recipe sites out there, a lot of them aren't great, with endless ads, terrible instructions and food that just didn't hit right. So we started developing our own recipes, playing around with flavors and ingredients and doing our own thing. Over the years we put together some great recipes and added some more from family and friends.

Now we're here to share what we've learned over the years with you. To give you delicious recipes, with great instructions, and even a pathway to follow to build your kitchen skills if you have none!
