First post! Yay me!

Okay, so not nearly as exciting as the title suggests.  Basically, the idea for this blog was centered around a realization I had at work a while ago.  A very good percentage of the customers that were buying food from the deli (sans sandwich meat) are single, thirty-something plus individuals who apparently cannot cook for themselves.  And, because I never want to end up lonely and/or spending entirely too much on a meal that is essentially glorified leftovers, then I need to learn how to cook. 

Don't judge the reasoning that got me here.  It is a very logical assumption that if I learn to cook, I will never be lonely again.  People flock to a kitchen that smells good.  There.  Take that.

Since cooking just seemed kind of easy for my starting point, I decided to take up baking first.  While a little more difficult than most cooking, essentially it's just a gastronomic chemistry experiment.  Mix precisely this much of this with that in this certain order and follow a few other variables and you should end up with an edible end result.

Well since I just simplified it down to something I actually understand, then I had to make it a little tougher.  If I'm going to learn to bake, I might as well make it interesting.  And healthier.  So all my baking from here on out is going to be vegan!  To any of my unwary test subjects, muahaha, I got you to eat something vegan and you couldn't tell the difference.

Besides, I've been tempted to try going vegan for awhile now.  Time for a new challenge (since everyone has adjusted to my herbivore-ous-ness already).  I can do this.  Baby steps!  Start with the baked goods since they're practically the base of my food pyramid while I have them in stock...!
