After a few of years of keeping up with this blog I finally decided that I really should post a little blurb about myself, and why I keep showing back up here. I was never going to do this because I never wanted the blog to be about me. I just wanted it to showcase the food I love. I realized that when I find a new blog I really like, one of the first things I do is look for information about the author. I want to know why they decided to get into blogging, if they have a career and family (besides their blog), what inspires them, if it is a food blog: are they a professional in the food business? Part of my curiosity is shear curiosity; the other part is that I find I compare myself to them. Not in the sense like I am trying to figure out if I am a better human being or not. But like, this person does this, and this, and this and they also do this, maybe I can do that too. That person went to culinary arts school in their 50’s, maybe it is not too late for me. That person posts twice a day, maybe I can at least post once a week. This person is so over the top creative and look he/she has a family and career as well, maybe I can do this or that too.
Anyway, so about me. I am a married to my best friend! I know that everybody says that, but they just say it. I really mean it! This guy is my most favorite human being in the universe! I have two really cool kids, both of them are boys. They are 22 and 9, “we wanted them to get along.” We live in South-East Idaho. I’ve lived in Idaho most of my life. I love Idaho, but would not mind having a winter retreat to escape to someday.
I work at a national nuclear research laboratory in database engineering.
I have no formal training when it comes to cooking. I would love to go to culinary arts school. I plan to eventually self-publish a cook book with the recipes I come up with for this food blog.
I also love to, look at and, take photos of food. Like cooking, I have no formal training in photography. I’m still “very much” a novice.
Thank you for stopping by.

Hey Julie,
My name is Brandon, and I work for a local SEO company. I was wondering if you were in the habit of hosting guest blogs posts? You can email me back or text me either way.

Hi Juliana, my name is Mariska and I found you through Pinterest. I love your about section and I am glad you decided to write one. It is the first thing I read as well when visiting a new blog. I am looking forward to your future posts and connecting on social media. If you ever decide to write that self publishing book, please feel free to reach out to me for any tips. I recently finished mine that will be published in the fall. I can maybe help with sharing my initial mistakes to avoid;) See ya on Pinterest!
Awesome!
