The Purpose of This Blog

1. To have a place to organize, sort, and share my random thoughts. 

2. To offer the following:

• bits of wisdom gleaned from others or learned through experience;
• opinions and information about various topics that interest me;
• recipes, tips, tricks, and interesting experiences (and experiments) in the kitchen.
• entertainment enough to hopefully make someone smile every now and again.

3. To record significant and (seemingly) insignificant events in my life. 

4. To satisfy my own need to express my feelings through writing.
