Wow. I'm really not cool.

It's just like a movie to make you feel lame. I returned home from a fabulous night with the girls but "Julie and Julia" made me think, ouch, no really I'm not cool.

As my previous post shows how desperate I am to be writing I can't help but wonder "so what?" This blog has, what, five followers tops. I want to make a statement, make something of myself, have more then ten readers? Can I do that? Probably not, but of course it's not going to stop me from trying. Don't get me wrong. I'm not a go-ahead-and-just-do-it kind of gal. I absolutely hate failing but I set myself up for it none-the-less. (Yes I really like the dashes today).

Despite my love for cooking, I don't think a food blog is really the thing to do. As much as I love photography, I don't have the equipment or software to do something great. And contrary to what my parents tell me, I'm not a great writer. Have I depressed you enough for one post? Good. I'll try to be a little more optimistic next time.

Before I forget what my own blog says, I'll share with you:

Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence. -Og Mandino

As it turns out, coolness and numbers of readers on your blog are mostly unrelated. And you already are very cool. I mean, I'm sure you could be cooler, but I wouldn't worry about it too much.

How about blogging by writing about pictures of food? You may not be the worlds foremost any one category, but combined you are an expert. I say pictures of food you cook and new recipes would be fantastic.
