heya

Ah another food blog! Revel in the originality for a moment, and then understand that this isn't meant to be my stepping stone to being the next Julia Childs, that other Julie, or, to set my sights a little lower, Rachel Ray... I am just girl in Brooklyn who has taken up cooking/baking as a hobby rather than a rare event.
I have been cooking my whole life. Cooking pasta, cooking rice, steaming vegetables. Since most of this involves simply boiling water and then boiling other stuff, I figured it was time to get a little more complicated.
I did not grow up in a house where cooking happened all that much. Single mom, latch-key kid, you get the idea. At age 13 I was a culinary peanut butter/jelly sandwich genius, but not much else. Always making due with what was around and getting a little creative here and there sometimes led to disastrous conclusions, but maybe gingerbread cookie batter as dinner is a well rounded meal.. yea, maybe that'll come to light one day.

I chose Thursday out of all the days because it's the day that I have set aside for having a sit-down meal. I will be taking pictures and putting up recipes from those nights. Most of the things will be pretty healthy, but since someone is getting a Cupcake/Muffin of the Month certificate from me, there will be something for the sugar fiends.

that's all for now!
