My Very First Post

I always thought it would be cool to have a blog.  I had a conversation with a very good friend of mine and we thought it would be cool to have a blog about all the movies we see.  Well, I felt the content would be limited, so I thought a lot about it and decided I could add different topics that would be fun and informative.  One thing she said to me was that I was not allowed to post anything negative.  She said if you say something negative, you have to add a positive.  That’s pretty difficult to do, especially if I paid $13 to see a bad movie or ate a bad meal at a pricey restaurant.  I’m a very cynical and sarcastic person which is the reason it took me so long to come up with a blog site. This will be a project in finding the positive and accentuating it as much as possible.  If you find something negative, please call me out.  I will do my best to counteract the negative vibe.

As I was thinking about blog content, a few obvious passions stood out: food & travel.  I realize food and travel blogs are a dime a dozen, so I will do my best to put my personal spin on things.  I love to try different restaurants and travel to different places.  Once in awhile, I like to try different recipes.  Unfortunately, I have to work in the real world, so real time travel posts will be very minimal.  My love for food has gotten me into trouble which is why I spend a decent amount of time at my local YMCA.  I always wish my desire to exercise was as strong as my desire to eat.  That is a work in progress.

This blog will contain other content besides movies, food, and travel.  I hope the readers will find this enjoyable as I begin my blog journey.  I don’t know where it will take me, but I hope it will be a fun ride.
