words.

For some time now, I have debated starting a blog. I enjoy reading-- blogs, books, novels, magazines, you name it! If you asked those closest to me, they would tell you that words of affirmation is my love language. More than anything, I enjoy giving those around me words of affirmation as a way to show love. Words help people express themselves and  connect with others. Words can make or break a person's day. Words are so powerful and must be chosen with care. I pray that my words in this blog will be encouraging, genuine, loving, and fun!

I chose the title "taste & see" based on one of my favorite verses in the Bible: 

Oh taste and see that the Lord is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him! {Psalms 34:8}

As a lover of all things that involve cooking and eating, I believe we can literally and spiritually taste how good our Lord is through delicious food and fellowship with others. The Lord's goodness is all around for us to see-- in the changing of the seasons, the rising and setting of the sun, the everyday interactions with loved ones and strangers. My hope is that this blog will be an outlet to highlight His goodness by sharing some of my favorite recipes, photos, special moments in life, and random everyday happenings. 

Have a blessed day!
