But this was the day that I was born. I'm approaching 30 so, maybe it is time that I give birth. Not birth to a baby or a small, yappy dog, but to me. To my heart.

I have a steady, intimate relationship with food. But my relationship to men is much more precarious. This blog documents an experiment to resolve these two parts of my life. Using craigslist or my awkward flirting skills, I entice random men over to my house by cooking an elaborate meal. This is what happens...

Heart Birth
It's been a long time since I've blogged but today is my birthday and I thought that it would be a nice present to myself to take the time to write here. Well, I also made a crappy gluten-free Betty Crocker chocolate cake with homemade cream cheese frosting and pecans. Good, but embarrassing to admit that I enjoyed (not just eating it, but only taking 5 minutes to make it).
You, dear reader, may be wondering why I haven't been blogging or cooking for guys. I've also been trying to figure that out. The other night I had this realization: I am closed. I don't mean close-minded (although I can be that) or picky (and that too), but I've shut myself off from imagining myself with a lover and I've gotten used to it. It seems impossible to start again. I practically avoid situations where I might even meet someone.
But this was the day that I was born. I'm approaching 30 so, maybe it is time that I give birth. Not birth to a baby or a small, yappy dog, but to me. To my heart.
