Seriously??

OK. So.... I have been considering doing a blog for a while now. The problem is, I never knew exactly what I wanted to blog ABOUT, and I didn't really think anyone would be that interested in anything I may post. Then the second problem was that if I started to post my feelings, I knew it would quickly get too emotional, and I didn't know if I was ready yet to share my past and open up to anyone in such a public way. Anyway, since we finished our new "dream" kitchen, I have been a lot happier cooking.... and I bought a new book called Guilt Free Cooking (356 homestyle recipes for healthier living).. and BINGO (as Elliot would say) I knew what I should do. I should cook my way through this cookbook. In doing so, I can learn a variety of healthy foods to switch up our eating at home (always end up making the SAME things) and maybe have some fun in the process of this blog? So, I posted on Facebook today my idea, and actually some friends thought it was a good idea- I can be like Julie in Julie and Julia... I thought it over today, and when I mentioned it to Erick (my loving husband) he laughed at me. Literally. He said, and I quote "You can NEVER rip on me for playing videogames again if you do this" He said- why would people want to read about cooking? He also told me I should wait until summer when I am not so stressed and have more time.... Well... I HAVE to prove him wrong, don't I? He also asked WHAT I could even WRITE about cooking.... he said "What , do you write , well that was good." LOL.. he should KNOW I have A LOT to say by NOW, shouldn't he? So, anyway- here goes. Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, so I was thinking I need to make something that is easy and that I already have the ingredients for since we are going out to lunch and a movie. Sooo as LAME as this is, I am going to start with the BANANA CHOCOLATE SMOOTHIES- from the snacks and beverages section. Gotta start somewhere right?
Until tomorrow.....
