Welcome to George’s Corner! I am the one and only George. I like to cook and love to bake. I do not put a lot of effort into measuring ingredients, and whatever kind I can find at Kroger and Aldi will do the trick.

I do not like most blogs where you get a life story, hyper-specific items, or other random things mixed into the recipe. Plus, the little bio on the side taking up page width. And then picture-perfect photos of a kitchen that probably doesn’t exist in reality. I aim to leave my recipes open ended. Get whatever kind of pepper or chocolate chips you prefer. Use whatever appliances and tools you have.

Over the years, I have assembled a lot of recipes, mostly from search engine searches and the newspaper. I’ve created my own recipes from scratch, and I’ve modified others. One thing I generally find is prep times that are waaaaay too short, or not enough description in the instructions.

My goal is to provide recipes with more realistic cooking times, and provide photos along the way to illustrate what it looks like. This way, when you are making it and something seems weird, you can exclaim, “oh good, his looked that way too!” In 2024, I am still rocking an iPhone 8, so please excuse my poor quality photos. And you will notice in the photos the mess I create – I do not wish to hide the fact that cooking can be messy. Some recipes way more than others!

I am an engineer by trade, so I am in no way, shape, or form a professional chef or baker. This is solely a hobby I have wanted to pursue for a while.

Thanks for viewing!
