Spork and Knife

First off, Welcome!   

While I plan on adding to the “About” section of this blog I’ve decided that getting a first post up is more important than making things perfect.  With that said, let me explain a bit about myself.

I am a 24-year-old midwestern girl living in Washington DC with a passion for all things food related.  I’ve started this blog as an outlet for my experiences and in the hopes of sharing my knowledge with other food lovers. 

I should add that I am not a food critic, chef or anything else in the industry.  I did spend a good part of my high school and college years working for a very popular coffee chain, so I can say I know a thing or two about java/joe/insert other nickname here, but that’s about it. 

When I go out to eat, I go with an open mind.  Often times I find myself stumped about an item on the menu but that doesn’t stop me from ordering and asking questions.  After all, how does everyone else learn?

Combining a love for all things food related with a budget has proven to be challenging and fun.  I’ve made it a mission to find that bottle of wine both pleasing and easy on the wallet or the restaurant that gives you a great meal and experience without throwing down a week’s salary. 

All of that said, I hope you join me on my adventures and misadventures.  Comments are welcome and encouraged!
