Here We Go!

I've been wanting to start a blog for awhile now.  I enjoy reading so many wonderful blogs, I often find myself thinking of things that I would like to write about in my own.  A few years ago, I had a little blog where I shared recipes and pictures of things that I cooked.  I'd like to do that on this blog too, but I don't want to limit the content to just food! 



 If you know me, you know that I am a foodie.  Right now, I am trying to find the balance between eating delicious food and being healthy and fit.  I plan to share with you the things that I am trying because, well, I know we all need a little motivation and it's nice to know you aren't alone in a health and fitness journey. 

 I also plan to write about a lot of other topics. I enjoy fashion, but I'm more of a "Maxxinista" and I try to find great styles on a budget.  I do the same for home decor.  I'll blog a little bit about gardening too.  It interests me a lot, but I've yet to plant anything that has lived for very long!  Hey, I figure I'll share what I am trying this year and maybe we'll all learn along the way. I also enjoy photography.  I'm no expert and I mainly use my iPhone, but I enjoy working with Photoshop and also capturing great shots whenever I can!

 Finally, a lot of my friends and family live so far away, I thought this would be a nice way for me to be able to communicate with them on what I have been up to.  I work full-time and I am not sure how much time I'll be able to put into this blog, but I decided since it's been such a frequent thought of mine, and constantly on my list of things to do, that I would just jump in with both feet and get it started.  I hope you enjoy my ramblings!
