#1 Make up my own recipe book

Those of you who know me know that I LOVE to cook! It's definetly a passion of mine so no wonder making my own cook book was #1 on my "bucket list". The idea that I have is to make a scrapbook style cook book that can be handed down to my daughter one day.

Growing up I had absolutley ZERO interest in cooking! But once I became pregnant with my son, Tyler, that all changed. I was terrified to begin cooking. Afraid I would make something inedible or burn the house down... *I'm also severly accident prone so burning down the house was a completely legitimate fear* So, with a few starter recipes from my step mother, I began to stumble into cooking. I quickly discovered that I loved to cook. Before I knew it I was taping cooking shows and buying every cookbook I could find! I think my husband gained a good 15lbs during this time...

I'm finally ready to start experimenting and discovering my very own recipes. I started doing this about a month ago and so far I have 3 recipes (which I will post soon). I will also post some of my all time favorite recipes from famous and not so famous chefs. As well as tips and tricks I have picked up along the way... then I can use this blog to put together my very own "scrap-cook-book".

More than cooking... i LOVE baking!!! Mostly cookies... but I will be sharing my recipes for baking too on here!

I look forward to sharing this adventure with you!

The Bucket Blog

This is a blog dedicated to completing my "bucket list". The inspiration came from another blog. http://www.simplymodernmom.com/ <---- Simply Modern Mom, Tiffany Bird, inspired me with her "Project 52: Date Nights" blog. In which, she gives ideas for one in-home date a week. My husband, Brandon, and I absolutely LOVE these dates. One of her date night ideas was for you and your spouse to create your own "bucket list". In case you are asking yourself "what is this bucket list thing you speak of?". Urban Dictionary defines a "bucket list" as the following: a list of things to do before you die... coming from the term "kicked the bucket".

So the husband and I both made our "bucket lists". #14 on my very own list was .... "learn to blog". I have always admired blogs of others and longed to have one of my very own. But, I am nearly computer illiterate. Therefore, blogs seemed out of my reach. Until now!! I have made this blog to journal my journey on actually completing this "bucket list"! I mean what good is a list if you can't cross things off of said list? I am so excited to get started on this journey. My hope is that others will be inspired to not only make their own "bucket lists" but to also accomplish the goals on that list.

Brandon is so supportive of this idea and he came up with the name for this blog :) Had to give credit where credit is due... lol I love this man so much and look forward to his input as I go venture into the unknown. I hope you enjoy my blog.
