Now that you know a little bit about my ethics and the guidelines I use for this blog, there are some other things about me (and therefore my blog) I think you should know. First and foremost, I am TERRIFIED of onions! Yes I know this is quite childish and strange and your probably thinking 'How old are you??? Seriously grow up.' To that I will answer 'I am 24 years old and I have tried ever so hard to grow-up but its just not happening!' That being said...you will find that I frequently use onion powder as a substitute for fresh onion in my recipes. I DO realize that onion powder is NOT the same as as using fresh onion in flavor, aroma or the amount that it will make you cry, therefore I will note in my posts where fresh onion can be used instead of onion powder, and put a similar disclaimer within the post.
Other fun factoids...I love adventure and the outdoors, broccoli is one of my favorite vegetables, I am passionate about food and eating right, I have double jointed thumbs, and I can recite the alphabet backwards. I also have experience growing food hydroponically indoors as well as tending a small outdoor garden of herbs, peppers, and tomatoes, and have experimented with growing mushrooms from recycled agricultural wastes. I believe in composting and hope to start my own mushroom and vegetable farm someday!
