It's a new DAY, it's a new DISH!

Speaking the Language of Love

About me

Location	Austin, Texas
Introduction	On October 14, 2010 my husband and I celebrated our 2 month anniversary. We were sitting on the couch, after work and I turned to him and said, "We've been married 2 months and I've cooked something different every night!" He congratulated me and asked, "Do you think you could do it for a year?" Ever competitive, I smiled at the challenge and emphatically said, "Yes". This blog is to document the last 10 months of my challenge. The deal is, I have to make one new main dish each day, for either breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I have no formal training in the kitchen, but I can follow a recipe and I love variety and trying new things in life, including food. My husband may think I cook for him because I love him, and yes this is true. But let's be honest, I love food just as much as he does! I am obviously in need of good recipes that fit a newlywed's budget, so please share some of your recipes in a comment! I hope you enjoy the next 10 months as much as I do and I hope that it will inspire you to spend a bit more time preparing a well balanced meal to share as a family each night and to get out of that comfort zone and try something new!
