Work In Progress...

I suppose it is fitting that I chose my birthday to submit my first blog post in over four years. I promise I never intended to stay away that long! Back when I last blogged (around the holiday season of 2010) I had reached the point where writing and updating the blog became a chore that I know longer looked forward to. Perhaps it was 'writer's block', I'm not sure. The 'job that pays the bills' was keeping me very busy. I really couldn't think of any topics that I wanted to cover and at the time there wasn't anything new to excite me. Part of my reason for starting this blog was as an outlet for two of my passions: cooking and writing. I suppose with everything that was going on in my life I just got 'burned out' and that 'passion' and excitement was gone. I even took a longer than expected break from Twitter (something I regret now).
