Well, I've never written a blog before, so please bare with me.
I've decided to start this blog for a few reasons.
1) I live in Hawaii which is very far away from my family in Illinois and Wisconsin. I think having a blog will help us stay even more connected than we already are. While I loathe many forms of technology and can't stand seeing people glued to their phones/iPods/iPads/etc. all day, I do think blogs are pretty cool.
2) I have so many thoughts/ideas swimming around in my head. I thought (see?!) having a blog might be a good way to organize them.
3) I love cooking and baking and food in general. As much as I love a good cookbook, I think they will be a thing of the past very soon. I never buy them anymore because you can find literally any recipe online these days. I have lots of recipes swimming around in my head. So, in lieu of writing a cookbook, I will post them for everyone to have and (hopefully) love.
4) I love writing. I like conveying my messages to others in word form. I love making people laugh. I hope to do both of these with my blog :)
5) After reading blog after blog all thanks to Pinterest, I wanted to try it out myself!
OK, so this was my first post. Still gotta work on editing the lay-out and whatnot. It's a lot more work than I thought to start a blog. HTML junk...templates...lay-outs...what did I get myself into?
Until next time...Aloha!!!
