January 4th, 2010

I'm starting a blog. Why? Seriously, do I have the time to update this and do what I want with it. Maybe, maybe not, but I'm sure going to try.

Why do this? I made a New Year's resolution this year to cook more at home, bake a new dessert every week, and keep up with all the crafting I have to finish.



This is my cookbook shelf, not all my cookbooks are on here, just the new ones and the ones I use the most. I LOVE to bake, so most of them are all about desserts; however, I need to cook more, so I will be exploring my books for great dinner recipes. I bake all the time, but I do make certain recipes more than others. My goal is to try a new dessert recipe at least once a week. I'll be taking pictures and posting the recipes from the books and magazines I use (I subscribe to Cooking Light, Food Network Mag, and Bon Appetite - since my Gourmet got canceled).

My craft books take up more than a few shelves on my entertainment center. I enjoy cross stitching, sewing, beading, and I recently learned to knit. I am currently working on a bracelet, a baby sampler for a friend, and a scarf for myself. I know, I live in Hawaii and have no need for scarves, but they are easy to make and I'm still learning =).

So here we go, my first post, on my first blog, at the beginning of the New Year. Let's see where this takes me!
