Challenge Accepted

Well, I'll be leaving for NY soon, but before I do, I wanted to start on my blog.

I wanted to do one of those 'Recipe-a-Day' challenges, where I'll take at least 1 new recipe everyday for 30 days and cook it. I'll probably put my own twist to it, but you can expect a J-Dub and toned down version of Rachel Rays' 30 Minute Meals. I am going to take most of my recipes from my favorite read, The Food Network Magazine, but I'd love any suggestions! I'll list the recipe I followed and the changes I made. I'll also post photos and any responses I get from my guinea pigs.

So, before I go, let me give you a little background about my relationship with food...
I love food so much, I keep saying I'm going to start a new healthy diet craze and two minutes later I'm daydreaming about a huge heaping plate of Thai or Indian food.
I love food so much, I used to tell my friends I am a 300 lb woman stuck in a 125 lb body.
I love food so much, I could've just finished my Thanksgiving meal and watch the Food Network and get hungry all over again.
I love food so much, I drool over artisan cheeses.
I'm always trying new recipes and always wanting to host dinner parties.
I.Just.LOVE.Food.That.Much.

I am excited to see where this goes...  I've decided the challenge will start next Monday, and will go until April 24th, which coincidentally is the SAME day I jet off to Florida to start my pre-summer vacation. Thanks for being a follower, hope this inspires you a little in your own kitchen :)
