First and Formost

I must admit that I am no classically trained chef, nor am I a busy mother of three (unless you count cats, as I have two adorable kittens). I am however, a self proclaimed foodie, a declared bottomless pit and most of all a person who loves food more than any normal person I have ever met.

My closest friends all seem to have the same uncanny instinct- to show up at my door around dinner time and casually ask "so...what are you doing for dinner?" This generally results in a short conversation, leading to a dinner sitting either around my eclectic and very blue living room or across the courtyard in front of my friend's very large tv, watching (surprise!) Food Network.

While I am new to this blogging sphere, and likely don't need to post a purpose for my blog for YOU, I am, shall we say, focus-challenged- undiagnosed and jokingly ADD, even. So, for my own peace of mind, I will be using this blog to post my opinions on events, recipes, nutrition and other food-related things. Of course, I will be looking for your thoughts as well! While I love cooking anything and everything, there are most definately things I have NO clue how to do. Oh, and let me tell you something. I am THE BIGGEST foreign food fanatic ever, so if you have something to contribute PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me. You might even become my new best friend.

sugar, spice and TONS of salt...
