I officially started this blog in April 2020, as we all hunkered down, sheltering in place. Since I was spending more time in the kitchen, baking loaves of banana bread<\/a> and Levain Bakery cookies<\/a>, I needed a space to store my recipes so I could come back to them. That was all the motivation I needed to revisit the idea of a blog, yet again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I’ve always wanted to have a little corner of the Internet full of my thoughts, ideas, and projects. Around this time last year, I actually secured a domain and got two blog posts up (republished here<\/a> and here<\/a>). But the traction didn’t stick. I got too caught up in the website design, instead of focusing on content. I also didn’t have a clear vision for my blog. I thought I would start a running blog to document my ultra journey (more on this in the future).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This time around, the blog is for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me to index all the recipes<\/a> I’ve tried so I don’t have to google it every time, or try to recall if I adjusted the sugar in the recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me to organize my thoughts<\/a>. I think… a lot. This will be my space to structure these thoughts to hopefully provide value to you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me to share all the projects<\/a> I’m working on. I have quite a few hobbies and I hope to create tutorials to teach others about my crafty interests. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For me to share my knowledge. So far, I have published my podcast notes<\/a> for anyone to use as a guide. There’s so much more in this pipeline that I can’t wait to share. Book notes, personal finance tips, my real estate investing journey… these are just a few off the top of my head!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So after a few weeks of creating content (mostly food-related), I thought it was time for a proper blog post. I can say for certain now that the blog is live, thriving, and here to stay. I’m excited for what’s to come and I hope that you’ll join me on this journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
