My Top 10 Favorite Food Blogs

My Top 10 Favorite Food Blogs

Let me be honest, I absolutely love FOOD!!! I love making it and eating it.  I love trying new recipes and I always come back to make the ones my family enjoy. 

For a long time I had this idea in my head that I needed to start creating my own recipes for my website and that I had to get a new camera to start taking like a million photos of these new recipes and how I make them. Every time I thought about creating new recipes for my blog, I would feel my chest tense up and I would have a mini panic attack because I just didn't want to do it. Not because I couldn't or because I was too lazy to do it, I just felt that I would rather spend my precious time doing other things that to me, are more important than writing a brand new recipe for a Green Smoothie.
