Also, thinking about all the food and recipes that I post - I don't do "traditional" recipes... that might frustrate people but I would love it if people felt inspired and adventuress and just Winged It, like we do... so That is why I don't do the whole Ingredients list, etc. like other food blogs do (although I do always include any Inspirational recipes that I use so you can start there). Be Free - Have Fun - Eat & Drink Well ! Here is my Google Profile
