In the Beginning . . .

Wow so where to begin? ? ?
I have recently been able to really spend time cooking for the love of cooking. And big surprise...I love it. I just moved to St. Petersburg, Florida and work an almost full time job. Leaving just enough time for me to be able to cook consistently. I got the idea for a blog from being bored in a meeting the other day and I started scribbling down all of the things that I have made in the last month or so since I've been here. My boyfriend is one lucky dude :) I think he'd agree.

For the last 8-10 months or so I have been mostly vegetarian and a lot of that time I did no dairy. This Spring I have modified my eating so that I have a more balanced approach by adding fish, eggs, butter (or ghee) and yogurt to my diet. Don't know that I have any fancy name or classification. However, it does make it challenging to feed a meat eater along with this mix. So I'll be sure to keep a menu posting as I go along (more for my record than anything else).

So this will be a collection of thoughts, recipes, ideas and experiences from going out and a good track of what I'm making each week. I love cooking because it's a good way to share a part of your life with others and good food flat out makes people happy :)
