About Me

I started this blog because I was amazed and shocked at the quality of meals I could prepare with such limited ingredients while living in Mexico.  The excitement of each successfully attempted recipe was exhilarating and has gotten me completely, 100%, head over heels obessed with all things food related.  I can spend hours researching recipe websites, browsing other food blogs, and viewing pictures of exquisitely plated food. 

I recently moved back to the United States and I am excited to start the next phase of my cooking journey.  I can only begin to imagine what will be cooking in the kitchen over the next year.  All the correct ingredients, the best cooking and baking equipment, an accurate oven thermometer, etc.....  I'm sure it will feel like a dream at first. 

I know that many meals will be leftovers so I will not be going through as many new recipes as I have in the past months.  I hope to try one new, exotic dish each week so that I have at least one blog post for the week.  And for all you meat lovers out there..... I imagine that most of my dishes will be going back to vegetarian.  Feel free to substitute (for tofu) or add chicken, pork or beef whenever you feel like it. 

Much love to all my readers!!  I appreciate all of you!
