Hey there!
I'm so glad you found my blog - whether you're a close friend, family, acquaintance, perfect stranger, or perhaps hoping for Taylor Swift (sorry!). Welcome! As a girl raised in a little town in essentially the backwoods of PA, I began this blog as a creative way for me to keep in touch with family and friends after I found myself transplanted "down South" in Memphis, TN. It's been a wild year adjusting to this new place where people seriously compete over who has the best BBQ and fried chicken. Where Elvis is still King and can be seen in the flesh at random karaoke hot-spots around town. A place where grown men still call you "ma'am" and you'll hear "y'all" dozens of times a day!
Let's just say it has taken some time for a vegetarian, snow-loving, Northerner like me to adjust! This blog is also about experimenting (and sometimes failing) in the kitchen, savoring good food, reading quality books, enjoying favorite musicians, traveling, running, and my rambling on who knows what else! As I am a Registered Dietitian, you'll quickly realize, to put it in my grandfather's own words, "all she does is eat!". Honestly, I can't deny that food is almost always on my mind - between leading a healthy life of my own and counseling others (mainly Vets!) to do the same. That isn't to say it's all healthy here - a girl has to have her cupcakes and fro-yo!
Regardless of how you happened to come here, I am glad you decided to pause a few cyber-moments and share life with me via the miracle that is the internet. Hopefully you'll be able to find a good recipe, new book to read, or perhaps crack a smile over my geekiness!
