I feel like blogging has always been a part of me, but I only began publishing last year. It’s incredible to look through posts from 2012 and remember all of the things that I experienced and I am excited to continue writing about my journey this year.

Only a few days in and the new year is already treating me well. I am with my boyfriend, the weather has been beautiful here in San Francisco and we have been eating incredible food.

I of course I did not cook these fantastical dishes, but I am determined to become a better cook this year and treat myself to new flavors and adventurous ingredients.

I also want to write about how I am keeping better eating habits in order to be a better me this year as I reach my goal of running again.

Travel plans are also in the works this year and I will be documenting these adventures as I visit friends and family I have not seen in some time.

And there will of course be some hardships that find their way onto the blog, but I will share them with you as a way to put things into perspective and work my way through each challenge.

Thank you to all of you, my readers, for sharing in my journey and listening as I traverse life and find my way.

Happy New Year!
