The New Chapter

So, it's been awhile - since I've blogged.

But here I am. Older, wiser (maybe), and graduated.

It's about time that I share with the world, or the sparingly viewers who actually stumbled across this, about my connection with candor. Dictionary.com gives the best definition of this sincere word:   


can·dor

  [kan-der]
–noun
1. the state or quality of being frank, open, and sincere in speech or expression; candidness.

In my pursuit of simplicity, I've come to the realization that I need this candidness in my life. To start, I want to address this candor and focus on three things:

-Career
-Cooking
-Creativity

I am driven to find creativity in my career and in cooking. Being in the 20-something crowd, I find that most young people my age are pretty simple-minded when it comes to the kitchen. Oh yes, that glorious room in our homes that include shiny buttons, knobs that can light a fire, and that box that reveals what winter was once like. It can be an intimidating room but if you were like me as a kid, this is a room where families gather and delicious edible things are created.

I am determined to let my creativity in the kitchen and in the office shine through this blog. Here you will find recipes that I have tried and are appropriate for those who are of the single, young, and free variety (or those who have a healthy appetite!) and here you will find my views on branding and the communication skills that the world reveals through technology and other outlets that are thought-provoking.

Thank you for reading and eating (and drinking!) through my new creative outlet in Connecting to Candor.
