Back in the Saddle

So, I am officially staging my blogging comeback! It's been eight years since I last blogged. Back then I was single, working in the restaurant industry, living in a small one-bedroom apartment downtown, and had pretty much not a care in the world! Fast forward and I am blissfully married to my sweet wife, Chessa, and we are raising our sweet one-year old son Rocky just outside downtown in Northeast Minneapolis. Life is busy, tiring, and wonderful.

I still love spending lots of time in the kitchen, that certainly has not changed. What has changed is the following:

1. The existence of Pinterest! What on earth did we all do before Pinterest?
2. I am now cooking/baking for a family of three instead of being a single gal cooking for just myself
3. I am now seriously exploring veganism (we will see when I finally give in and start saying "I am a vegan")
4. I am now in a full time career that is NOT restaurant management (yay!)
5. I am now interested in blogging about more than recipes alone - I will probably address topics such as the moral and ethical reasons for choosing a vegan lifestyle, restaurant reviews, parenting, and life in the city. I may even sometimes discuss politics! I do, however, anticipate the blog primarily remaining focused on sharing my and reviewing others' baking and cooking recipes.

Thanks for joining me! I look forward to hearing your thoughts, contributions, and suggestions!
