I guess I'll post an intro entry?...

My version of cooking has always been making things from boxes. I moved into a 1 bedroom apartment at the beginning of July which somehow aged me a good 10 years. Cooking, along with watching the news, vacuuming and going to bed at 9:30, have become my new favorite things. The tricky part? I don't know the first thing about cooking. So I am dedicating my summer to learning to cook delicious healthy vegetarian food and blogging about all my mishaps and successes. I guess you could imagine this blog to be like Julie and Julia except that I am not cooking through Julia Child's french cookbook.... I am selectively cooking through a couple vegetarian cookbooks. So really not the same at all.

I have made a few things already and my favorite part is telling Dan what I made. Dan doesn't eat veggies and pretty much everything I eat includes veggies. He is always so supportive and says things sound delicious, but I know he wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. I can't wait to start sneaking veggies into his food when we actually live in the same place.

Oh and side note. Dan "my sophisticated writer" boyfriend who thinks "all writing needs a purpose and intended audience" and blah blah blah thinks this blog is dumb and doesn't understand how a blog about my cooking adventures could be interesting. But he promised to read it anyways. So I guess I am set to prove him wrong!
