I looked at your site and I'm not an expert at all, but may I suggest you place the AdSense ad closer to the recipe content since it is generating ads more in line with the topic. I almost clicked the ad by Adsense because it was about recipes. The other ad is kind of off topic for such a focused site but its closest to the recipe content. I think you're doing pretty well. Recipes are great and I will book mark the site. I love to hear of any success these days with Adsense rather than the negative stuff.
