Foodie

I think I have an addiction.  An addiction to food.  Not so much eating it, well that's not true, I love eating food, but what I am referring to right now is my addiction to food blogs and cooking.  I find myself salivating and spending way too much time on them.  I literally have to control how much time I spend browsing and brewing, ok not really brewing much but it sounded so good with the browsing. Cooking is an outlet for me, I feel relaxed and happy after a successful jaunt about the kitchen. Dallin encourages this outlet and enjoys the aftermath quite a bit.  I have had great success and definitely some failures (does anyone have the perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe?  I have yet to find one.), but I have had a lot of fun doing it. 

My mom is probably laughing right now because I was the last person who wanted to learn to cook growing up.  Proud yet Mom?  The only downsides I see to this outlet are dishes and my skinny jeans growing mysteriously tight...Ok so these pictures don't do the food justice, I think I need a better camera for that.  Hint.  ;)  I have never liked Irish Soda Bread but I tried this recipe and LOVED it.  It was a big hit at our friends' St. Patrick's dinner.  Dal and I love Indian food so for Valentine's Day I tried Tikka Masala from scratch and we both had to be rolled from the table.  We couldn't contain ourselves it was so good.  That's romantic right?!
