Here's the Story, Morning Glory

Alrighty. Here's the deal: For months now, I've felt somewhat uninspired to write. I have to have a purpose, a motivation for writing, and I've had trouble finding that lately. Like, dude, what's it all for, maaaahn?

This summer has given me time to think about what exactly I'm doing here. Here, as in here in the blogosphere, not here as in here on Earth, because I am not nearly philosophical enough (or rested enough) to ponder that one these days. Isabel mentioned not long ago that she wanted her site to be somehow helpful to others. I can relate to that. I don't want to just sit here and give you a laundry list of Things I Did Today and Tricks My Toddler Can Do. It's just not me anymore.

But I can't quit you, Internet. I just had to figure out where exactly you fit into my life. I realized that I need to write about that which I know, love, and spend most of my waking hours thinking about. And that is food.

Now, hold on, before you start thinking, "Greeeeaaat, another food blog...now where's the delete button on my subscriptions list?" hear me out. It won't be All Food All the Time. Just mostly food. Healthy food. Healthy food that I'm currently eating and trying out on my family. Healthy food that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. There will also be stories about how we're trying to live a more simple and frugal life. And about how I'm going to try and make this whole thing fun.

It sounds absolutely riveting, doesn't it?


But it's what I'm feeling, so I hope you'll hang with me.

Alas, there will be no cake as long as I'm a slave to the Points, but I bet we'll find a suitable substitute.
