Bringing What We Know to Our Tables...

After traveling 2,500 miles in a Prius with a boyfriend, a dog, a brother, two bags of clothes, nine plants, spanning over nine state lines in four days to California we made it to our new digs and have begun building a new nest with old items.

I am contemplating my direction in life. What a luxury, eh?! I seem to find myself in these positions often. One door closes (in the form of a job, or a home) and another opens. Here I am wide eyed, with many routes to take. With small experience in many areas (I seem to spread myself thin with the cooking, the nannying, the teaching) I am going to first look into my cooking options professionally. While this "profession" comes to fruition, in the mean time I will continue to cook, to explore with this wonderful blog that is my table.
