A little introduction...

I've been contemplating doing this blog for quite a while now, so I finally decided just to go for it. So, where did the "insparation" come from?

My husband (Eric) and I eat out a lot, and I mean a whole lot. We are big believers in supporting small businesses and helping out the little guy. All of our favorite places are all locally owned, and we love to try the many new restaurants that seem to be popping up in Omaha every few minutes. After watching too much travel channel and food network, I felt like I should give my two cents about all the local fare Omaha has to offer. Not to mention, I really needed to find a hobby.

Then I got to thinking, not only do I like to eat out all the time, but I like to cook too. I'm always recipe hunting and trying new and different things in the kitchen. However, not all turn my experiments turn out. SO, I thought, why not share that journey as well, and all the comes with it. The good, the bad, the ugly and the burnt.

So, what can you expect to find here? Reviews of locally owned restaurants, plus my experiments in the kitchen, tried recipes, and probably some other juicy little tidbits along the way. I warn you, I am not a food critic. I am NOT a trained chief. In fact, I haven't taken a cooking class since middle school home economics. This is just my experiences, thought and opinions and they are open to anyone who cares to read them.

Thanks for popping in! I hope you'll join me again!
