Let's Get This Started!

Well, here we are. Or here I am, I suppose. :) Through the years I've been able to cultivate my passion for food, and I think it's time for me to share some things with you! Hold on to your hats though. It's mostly just my point of view on things in the food world. ;)
But before I get started, let me introduce myself..

- I began "cooking" in my mother's kitchen using measuring utensils, water, and my imagination since before I can remember. 
- I'm a self-proclaimed health nut that likes to bake. I'm still puzzling at how this can be possible, but it works for me! 
- I dislike fried foods with a strong passion, but I can eat them if there is nothing else to choose from. (And, it is hard to turn down some good fried chicken!)
- I have a deep love for dark chocolate. We're best buds..super tight. 
- I would watch The Food Network all day nonstop if I could.
- I am NOT a Vegan or a Vegetarian, but at times I think I could live off of vegetables and fruit for the rest of my life and not miss meat once.

You'll get to know me as this blog continues, but for now, that will do. :) 

One thing that I love to do is travel. People travel mostly because they want to 1. See new sights. 2. Do new things or 3. Shop. While I enjoy all of those, my #1 reason for traveling is the food! It's crazy, I know, but I can't seem to plan a trip without searching for the best restaurants in and around my destination. I like "Culinary Traveling" along with sight-seeing and shopping. 

In conclusion, I want to share my greatest (and worst!) restaurant finds as I travel around the U.S. (which will happen one day!!), and share great dish ideas that I find along the way. Thanks for taking this journey with me. It's sure to be a fun one! 

Happy eating,
