My first blog

Hello everyone! So I suppose I should start by saying why I am starting a blog. Afterall, shouldn't there be a purpose for this? Besides the curiousity...here are the reasons I have come up with, in no particular order:

1. I was married 39 days ago and I now need something to replace all the web wedding surfing I no longer have. Quite frankly, I became some what obsessed planning my wedding. I had never thought about how I would have a wedding, except that I wanted a sunset ceremony. Yes, it's true. I am a girl and for 35 years I had never dreamt of my wedding. So since I'm the type "if I'm going to do it, then do it right" ...all my free time went to wedding planning. A day ago I realized I still have an attachment to the knot and I really need to let it go...so it's blogging or becoming a nestie.
2. A way to keep my friends and family updated
3. Journaling this new phase of my life...I would say my life has drastically changed. I'm a wife. I'm a mother. What happens next?
4. I love to cook and plan to share recipes.
5. I'm suppose to be packing to move in two days and I'm procrastinating.
