Hi! It’s Tammy and this is my food blog! This has been a work in progress since 2016. It started with the name. It just came to me one day, so I immediately purchased the domain name and just sat on it for a while.
About 10+ years ago I asked a friend of mine what blogging was. He didn’t know. I thought he would since he specialized in IT. I had read about it somewhere and it sounded like something I’d be interested in doing. Partially because most of my life I have kept a journal and for the most part having a blog is essentially an online journal. Although blogging has come a really long way since then! I so wish I had pursued it then! I would be a pro at this now! Part of the reason it’s taken me so long to get this up and running is my lack of tech experience! Not my thing! I can cook and make cocktails!! 🙂
Cooking and entertaining has always been my passion – even when I was a little girl. Now I have my very own special place to share all things culinary.
Everyone always asks what’s your specialty. Honestly, I don’t have one. I have been cooking my whole life and can make just about anything. Everyone in the blogging world says you must have a niche. I totally get that, but for the moment, I do not. I have no idea where this blog is going – if anywhere. It’s just a project for now. One that will constantly evolve and be fine tuned over time. I have so many ideas that sometimes I feel like my head is going to explode! I’m just going to keep at it and see what happens.
I love EVERYTHING culinary. Great restaurants, specialty markets, farmers markets, intimate cocktail and dinner parties, tapas bars…….. you name it. I love cooking for friends, family and neighbors. I love when I travel to a new place and get to try different cuisines. I hate malls and shopping in general, but love to go to the grocery store. No one in my family will go grocery shopping with me. Apparently I take too long. My sister says I take 20 minutes to pick out just one tomato. I love baking homemade bread, but since I’m not a bread lover I usually just give it away. It’s the same when I make chocolate truffles or homemade toffee. I like to make, but do not have a sweet tooth, so I give it all away. I’m a savory girl for sure. I don’t even like “sweet” cocktails. Give me a big fat Dirty Martini stuffed w/ Blue Cheese Olives any day and I will make a meal out of that!
