Starting a blog has always seemed like an overwhelming task. I am not an eloquent writer and don't have a specific subject that I am super passionate about. I do however enjoy sharing ideas and new products I love. Awhile back I asked a bunch of my girlfriends to start a website with me. I thought it would be a great place to post advice about all different topics ranging from marriage and childrearing, to the mundane stuff like great products that make cleaning the kitchen a little bit easier. Whenever I get together with my girlfriends I am overwhelmed with how much wisdom they all have. I feel as though I should have a pad of paper to write down which books they just read and loved, or what they did in their garden to finally make their tomatoes grow. I easily forget things and am constantly making lists. So I guess in a way this is my enormous list of advice, ideas, and wisdom I have received from all of the people who have touched my life.
I had a hard time deciding on a title for the blog. Butter and cinnamon toast was something I loved as a child. If I was allowed I would have eaten it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I hope to fill this blog with "cinnamon toasts" from my past, present and future- books I have loved and want my future children to read, advice from amazing people that helped shape my life, cool products that make life a little bit easier, holiday crafts that have been passed down over the years, and even yummy "recipes" like toast with butter and cinnamon sugar.
So I think it is appropriate that I entitle my first entry- Cinnamon Toast
Here are the "directions".
1. Put two pieces of toast in the toaster.
2. Toast until they are lightly brown.
3. Spread butter (the real stuff) on top
4. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar (I prefer mostly sugar with a hint of cinnamon so it isn't overpowering)
5. Yum!
***This can also be done with English Muffins. The butter gets into the nooks and crannies! Delicious!
