The beginning...A marriage born from a mutual love of all things delicious

Once upon a time, two young souls crossed paths in the hallowed halls of the country's highest academic institution. The University of Rhode Island.  What started as a simple friendship grew into a college romance full of excitement, newness and nerves.  Ten years later those two souls are the married parents of a 9 month old daughter living and working in Connecticut.  

You may be asking yourself, "What brought these two gems together?"  The honest answer....food. Our relationship was built around a mutual love for all things delicious.  Throughout our time together we have been on many food adventures.  It started all the way back to a bet as to who could eat more at Hooters and has progressed through over 9 countries, hundreds of restaurants, home cooked meals, various ethnic cuisines and maybe a few experiments with juicing.  After ten years our relationship and our love of food is going stronger than ever.  

In July of 2014 we welcomed our daughter Lennon to the world.  Like all new parents we were apprehensive about raising such a delicate little nugget.  Most of all we wondered, "Would she be a picky eater?"  Much to our delight, she appears to have taken after her parents.  Girlfriend loves to eat!  

So what are we doing with this blog?  Well, the answer is easy.  As parents we felt it would nice to start a meaningful family tradition.  Something we could look back on and appreciate.  After much discussion, it came to us.  We would take our love of food and make it into a true adventure!  

Our mission is simple:  Pick a type of food.  Find the best place to get said food.  Take pictures and write about it.  

First stop....Ice cream.
