Welcome to Sin & Soul

I will admit, I am a copycat...I recently watched Julie & Julia and the movie got me thinking that I should have my own food blog. I am constantly creating my own recipes and cooking up a storm in the kitchen. I thoroughly love to create food to fuel the people I love. To create an amazing meal is my way of saying "I love you." I also enjoy photography and I feel this will be an excellent way for me to share my photos and recipes with those of you who are interested.

My approach: I am all over the place. My interest in food runs the gamut, but there is one thing that is for sure...I really enjoy using fresh ingredients, and organic whenever I can get my hands on it. I love soulful, sinful things. The richer, the better.

I had to laugh while watching Julie and Julia, when Julie...while writing her blog spoke of butter. I love butter, so much so that my boyfriend picks on me and thinks it is hilarious. No butter imitations for this girl. What blasphemy!!! The more butter the better! Popcorn is really only an accompaniment to my butter. Well, not quite. But in all seriousness, I do love the stuff.

I enjoy making easy, simple recipes that will take 30 minutes. But there are times I will spend hours upon hours in the kitchen, preparing the perfect loaf of bread or the most gorgeous cheesecake. Creamy and decadent. Hopefully this blog will be a way to share my recipes as well as my attempts at the recipes of great chefs whom I admire.

So, here's to Sin & Soul. My new baby. May she grow to be a place that you all will love to come and visit. If you try a recipe, please leave a comment! I will love to hear from you.
