The Challenge!


My challenge – to start a food blog.  To write about recipes made from the over 100 cookbooks on my book shelf, the 200 plus food magazines I have collected and the huge amount of recipes cut out of newspapers, magazines and printed off websites.  To write about restaurant and cafĂ© meals enjoyed.  To write about meals prepared for family and friends.    

So what's challenging about that?  To do all this and still DIET!  I am on a serious quest to lose weight.  So, some might say that it is not a great time to start writing about food but you know what?  I think it is just going to make it all the more interesting.  I see it being a mix of healthy, low calorie food and the occasional indulgence.  Everyone needs a little treat now and then!  Add in a little bit of travel, (I hope!), and there you have the bits and pieces that will make up this blog!
