Better Than Friskies

So last night's dinner wasn't exactly gourmet, but that didn't bother Roger. Chicken sausage beats canned cat food any day...

Tagged!

Less than a week into having my own blog, I've been tagged - twice! First by Mari of Mari's Munchies and then by Tiffany of Tiffany's Temptations . So I guess I have to share my 8 facts, since you're all dying to know ;)

1. My favorite thing to eat in the whole world is chocolate chip cookies, as you may have guessed from the theme of my blog. Nothing makes me happier than a soft, giant cookie. My favorite store-bought cookies come from Quick Chek, and being the wonderful husband that he is, Joe often stops there and picks me up treats.

2. I will not go upstairs to bed until the couch cushions are fluffed, the TV remote is neatly sitting on the coffee table and the house is generally in order. I am slightly obsessive compulsive like that.

3. I am addicted to Yankee Candles, but only the dessert-scented ones. Keep your "Fresh Linen" and "Gardenia" scents and give me "Chocolate Chip Cookie," "Creme Brule," and "Vanilla Cupcake."

4. Animals just crack me up. Show me a cat slipping off a windowsill or a dog bumping into a wall and I will laugh until I cry.

5. I was filmed for a Tae Bo infomercial last fall. While my footage ended up on the cutting room floor, I did get to spend the day working out with and talking to one of my fitness idols, Billy Blanks. He is a wonderful and inspiring person and it was a great experience.

6. One of my favorite places to be is the gym. I love socializing with people there and taking different classes. I also teach a class of my own called BodyAttack.

7. I get way too much pleasure from my cats. I love my dog Tucker, don't get me wrong, but I ADORE my kitties, Roy and Roger. They make me happy every day, and there's nothing better than being snuggled in bed with Roy in my arms Roger on my feet.

8. My husband Joe is the best friend I've ever had. We've been together for over 10 years and he is truly the love of my life. I am grateful every day that we found each other so young and are able to experience nearly our entire lives together.

My First Post!

Welcome to my blog! My first post isn't really food realted, just a little hello and a chance to introduce myself and my "crew," since I forsee this little hobby becoming a family affair.



My husband Joe and I have been married 4 years and together for 10 1/2. He enjoys eating just about whatever I make. He's very sweet and always tells me everything I cook or bake is "good," even when I disagree!



We have two cats, Roy and Roger, and a pitbull mix named Tucker. Both Roger and Tucker are food obsessed and love nothing more than hanging in the kitchen and "helping." Exhibit A: Roger and Tucker "assisting" Joe as he makes some fruit salad.

Finally, we have my one true love Roy, or my "royfriend" as Joe calls him. Roy doesn't have much interest in food beyond crunchy cat treats, but he has a great interest in me and can therefore also be found in the kitchen if that is where I am.

So there you have it! I hope you enjoy what my blog has to offer. Now on to the important stuff - the food!
