So, a little about myself I'm a 30-something woman living in Souther California and I work freelance. This has not been a good year for freelancing. I don't think I'm alone in saying this has not been the greatest year, financially at least. in addition it's also been the year of the wedding. My sister and one of my closest both got married this year. (They were beautiful weddings by the way and I'm thrilled for them both.) For my sister's I was the maid of honor and can I just say I loved my dress. I did, until I saw the photos. It was the proverbial smack in the head. I know I'm not the first person who saw themselves in a bridesmaid dress and said, "Oh lord, how did I get that big." I had several crying fits over the fact that my sister's beautiful wedding will always remind me that I had gotten shape would. So, this has has also become the year of weight loss. And the year of weight loss has lead to the year of experimenting with cooking and baking with no recipe at hand.
I know there are great cookbooks I could buy and classes I could take, but you know paying work is non-existent, and bills are many. And there are many recipes online, but I think it might be more fun to try some of this on my own. So, instead I'm jumping feet first, with the only the guidance of my full fat cookbooks and online advice, into kitchen experimentation. My goal is to take dishes and sauces and deserts and all those wonderful foods that are way too high in calories and turn them into lower calorie, lower fat, higher fiber and just as satisfying versions. This is my record of that endeavor. (Although I'm sure other of life's endeavors will pop up in these posts as I go along.)
If anyone has tips or tricks please let me know. I need all the help I can get.
