Welcome

The Life I Want is a blog I created to display and share all the little things that make me smile. Sound corny, yeah I know, but you have to understand. I live a very boring life. Truly. I'm one of those behind the scene type of people. You know, the not seen and barely heard. To be honest I kinda like it that way. But I believe that everyone needs an outlet to speak loudly and be heard. So here goes. Be gentle!

I love the simple plearsures of life. For example, waking up Saturday morning to watch cooking shows makes my week. I literally woke up this morning planning what to make for breakfast (homemade biscuts, eggs, bacon, and vanilla almond coffee) so I can sit in front of the tv for the next 3 hours and watch Everyday Foods, America's Test Kitchen, Primal Grilling, etc. I love it! One thing to be known is that I am a total foodie! I have 2 degrees in Culinary Arts and completing my B.S. in Nutrition (6 months and counting!). Food is my obession, well one of many, so expect to see numerous post with recipes.

I love fashion and the art of being stylish. Home decor, party planning and design, d.i.y projects, travel, and people are among the list of loves. So sit back and enjoy!
