Welcome to Relish

Welcome to Relish, my new blog about food and, occasionally, wine. It's hard for me to tell you exactly where I plan to go with this site or what you'll see here on a regular basis because, honestly, I don't really know myself. I'm sure there are a lot of food blogs out there in the 'sphere already and, to be perfectly frank, I'm kind of jumping into this world without doing much research.

That being said though, this blog will be an extension of my passion for everything concerning food. I'm by no means a chef, but I do consider myself to be an excellent cook. I follow food trends closely and I like to experiment with unique ingredients and more advanced techniques I'm not familiar with. Thus, I want this blog to be about dialogue. I plan on sharing original recipes, interesting food finds, and tips with you and I hope you'll do the same either through the comments or email.

In terms of frequency, I'm hoping that I can post something new here at least once a day whether it's a recipe, a good wine or beer, or even just a link to an article that I think you might be interested in. And if you catch anything interesting in the paper or on the net that's relevant to this site, please feel free to pass it along.

And finally, there's one last thing, especially for those of you with a sweet tooth: I'm not a big fan of dessert. I almost never bake and I'm not particularly crazy for cake, ice cream, pie, pastry, and, yes, chocolate too. It's just my palate, I guess. But in the interest of appealing to those of you that are into desserts and baking, I am going to try my hardest to throw you a bone now and then. I can't promise much, but I will try.
