About

I don’t have a “thing.” My cousin Tami is extremely artistic and create beautiful art out of oil paints, metals and fabrics. My friend Sara is so smart. She’s one of those who “gets” chemistry and she can do math problems without a calculator. So, what’s my THING?

Blogging about cupcakes.

That’s how this whole blogging thing started for me. A family friend told me about her cupcake blog, 52 Cupcakes, while we were on vacation in upstate New York. When I got back home I checked it out and I thought, I CAN DO THAT!

Searching Google for other foodies.

I wanted to connect with other food bloggers in my area, so one night I did a Google search for +Phoenix, +Food and I got a few hits. Arizona Coffee and The PMA. As I searched their blogs, I found other links and added them to my web site.

Now, there’s a lot more I’m exploring.

As I thought about my writing style and what voice I wanted to use on my blog, I started to see that there were other things I wanted to explore and learn about. From reading Feasting in Phoenix, I wanted to start to pay more attention to the food and service from restaurants I was visiting. From African Kelli I want to see how I can use my blog as a sounding board for things that are important to me. From Andrea’s Recipes, I wanted a way to create a more organized site and capture family recipes.

So, what is this blog about?

It’s about me. It’s my thing! You’ll catch posts on baking, cooking, living, traveling with food as a common thread (usually).

Update!

January 2008 and I’ve started my own cupcake accessory business. Check out my new web site Cupcake Cabana…insert cheesy tune here!
