My First Post

So after seeing Julie & Julia the movie I have been inspired to write my own blog.

I want to be able to add pictures and make this a place that reflects me and my interests, so we started with green...which my favorite color is always a good place to start. Well currently it is 4:35pm and almost time for dinner so I must scamper off to the kitchen and help set the table. To be continued.....
