The Peaden Kitchen

Back in 2011, David and I started a second blog specifically to post our favorite recipes. In the past ten years we've posted over 200 recipes of things that we've enjoyed and want to remember. We have Peaden/Walker family favorites,  new recipes that have become family favorites, rolls, desserts, and everything in between. 

For most of those ten years, we had this header at the top of the blog:

But just recently I asked my amazingly talented sister-in-law, Brooklyn, if she would illustrate a new photo of David and I. It turned out so lovely and I love it. It's perfect because David's #1 job is to grate all the cheese, and we joke about it all the time. 

I feel like this perfectly describes us in the kitchen. We work together all the time. Sometimes that looks like favorite recipes where we have assigned tasks that we each always complete, sometimes it looks like one of us doing the dishes and the other doing the cooking, and sometimes it looks like David working hard all day to earn the money to pay for the food and me working downstairs to prepare and provide it. It's teamwork in all of it's forms and I'm grateful that we are on the same team. 

I thought it would be fun to post some of our favorite recipes from right now and from the past ten years:
