To Try and Write Again..

I have been very very far away from writing for pleasure. In the spirit of fresh starts, I'd like to write again. About food.
The cynic inside me  is laughing at this misplaced January goal. Ideally, I would write about running or FIIT routine or the various youtube videos I cycle through in an attempt to get fit again, in line with the new year's resolution.

Instead, I choose food and am attempting an A-Z of food I like/can cook/have fond memories of.
