First Thoughts

Thinking about food always makes me happy, as well as hungry of course. This feeling of happiness comes from the pleasure that tasting delicious foods bring. Not only does food satisfy your taste buds, but it is also always a pleasant subject to discuss with other people.  Everyone eats, and everyone enjoys good food. When I think of good food, it is not just the food substance itself that comes to mind, but also the environment in which the food exisits. People, places, sounds, smells, and thoughts always accompany food and its existence.  Whether I am at a family gathering, out to lunch with my friends, or flying solo, each time I sit down for a meal or grab a snack it is always a new experience both for my taste buds and my mind. Not only does food satify hunger, but the need for adventure as well. There is so much to discover within the genre of food, as it is endless with possibilities for creativity and new experiences. 

Having recently just moved to Seattle from Northern California, I am excited to explore all of the unique food and drink opportunities this metropolitan setting has to offer.  As a lover of coffee and anything related to bakeries, I cannot wait to get out into the city and taste my way around.  Ethnic food also seems to be quite the buzz around these parts, and I am definitely always up for a bit of culturing.  Food is endless, is common ground, and will surely help acquaint me with my new surroundings.
