What I'm All About

Hi, my name is Alicia and this is my blog. I am aiming towards it being educational, but also personal. One of the reasons I started this blog was to follow my passion for food. Whether it be finding new recipes to try or throwing together some of my own, I’d like a way to share it all with everybody!

It is hard to explain the joy cooking brings to me. Which is why when I was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis, a disease that directly affected my relationship with food, my cooking stopped for a couple of years. I see and talk to many people with the same disease who just like me at the beginning, did not know much about it or how to treat it. Sadly, this is the case with most doctors too. Which brings me to the other reason for starting this blog. I am hoping that I can gain some followers that I might not only get to share healthy and tasty recipes with, but also help educate a little too!

Over the years I have learned a lot about this condition, ways to help with it, some of the right foods to eat and much more. Although I still have so much to learn, I am beyond excited to share stories of what my own journey has been and the knowledge I have gained. I also look forward to getting replies and hearing about others experiences and the knowledge they have to share. If anyone wants to challenge any points I make or help me correct a mistake, please do so. Thank you!

Please keep in mind that I am just starting out, I'm certainly no Nora (http://www.noracooks.com/), yet! I look forward to getting even better over time with this blog. I've included a picture up top of one of the dishes I've made, so you can get a glimpse of my cooking. It's a roasted red pepper, sauteed shallot and garlic sauce mixed with whole grain pasta and some fresh parsley to top it off.
