I just found out we are having another United Way fundraiser at work next week .... last week was Chilifest, next week is the Soup Kitchen!!! Now the dilemma of which soup to make??? I have a tendency to always make recipes that include beer ... not healthy I know, but you can sell anything if you tell people there is beer in it, honestly!
One of my favs would have to be Great Canadian Chowder ... Beer, Bacon and Cheese. A great trifecta when you are trying to appeal to the masses, not so great on the waistline but for these fundraisers I like to go for the wow factor. I suppose I could make two soups, my other fav is my mother in law's recipe for Carrot Garlic Soup still has lots of flavour and certainly isn't your run of the mill chicken noodle soup. Thank goodness the temperature has dropped in K-Town, should help with the soup sales!
Cheers!

Walkin' the Walk
So I am not completely new to blogging, I have a foodie blog Spread The Recipe that shares my family's tried and tested favourite recipes but a health and fitness blog is absolutely foreign to me!
You see I am the shy type, I never assume that anyone would want to hear my story so I usually keep things to myself. Only trouble is keeping too much to myself and sticking to my comfort zone has left me out of shape and in need of a new approach ... which brings me to this new journey.
I need to be accountable and focus on #mycommitment. I have been so inspired by the communities that I have found via Twitter through @FitFluential, @CommitmentDay, @FitApproach, @girlsgonesporty and @therunchat that I can't help but stick with this! Everyone has been open, supportive and encouraging .... and they don't even know me!
I compare blogging to my old approach of entering details into a food/fitness log where I counted every calorie and curl ... but this is way more intense! I'm not certain to what extent I will post details of my journey, I suppose as I become more comfortable I will share more but making this lone statement of committing to change my health and current none existent fitness routine is a huge step to start with. I know I won't have a problem sticking to the changes, my challenge is going to be sharing them with the world. Crossing my fingers to progress and perseverance!!!
