Ready, Set…..

It’s difficult to write the first entry of a blog. Where do you begin, and who cares, anyway? So it begins. This is a blog about food, my love of it and how very central it is to my life. To me, cooking is an essential part of my day. It’s my creative outlet, my relaxation, and above all, the very act of it brings me peace. Kind of like a runner who has to run for the high. I relish the planning, the prepping, the actual cooking, and the presentation. Most of all, I adore feeding the people in my life. I am certainly not the best self-taught cook, not anywhere near. My cooking style is a blend of a little of this and a little of that, bits and pieces of what I’ve learned from others, and a whole lot of improvisation (there’s a two-year old running around the house, after all). It’s not the most refined food, not fussy or overdone. But my kitchen, where I spend most of my time, is where the love is. And to me, food and love- well, they’re one in the same.
