Why Be Afraid of What You Want?
Why is it that dreams remain just that...a dream. How is it that so often fear of failure, the unknown, or self doubt causes paralysis and instead of taking steps to turn a dream into reality we freeze up completely? When I saw this question in a book, it resonated with me and helped me identify my insecurities about embarking on a new adventure. Why am I so afraid of following my passion?

FlourBloom is an opportunity to share my journey and recipes with my friends, family and my fellow foodies. My hope is that you enjoy what you find on this page, test out some of the recipes and most of all see that there is no reason to be afraid to go after what you want.
That's me! I'm passionate about baking from scratch, addicted to the Food Network & Cooking Channel, food photography & love to travel.
I couldn't take this risk alone so let me introduce the FlourBloom Team:
Meet Kurtis.
I do not know if I would be at this cross road if it weren't for him. Not only is he my pocket of motivation, he is my official taste tester, blogging partner & helps out with some of the photography. He's an avid DYI junkie, enjoys traveling, & is unquestionably a true foodie! He possesses the best sense of humor. EVER. and makes my life so much fun!
Say Hi to Bloom.
I think it is interesting where inspiration can come from. This little guy reminded me of my childhood. When I was 12 years old, my father moved us to Missouri. For a little while we lived in my grandmother's home. She owned a 2-story white house with black shutters built back in 1915. A few things that I will never forget about it was 1. 11 members of my family all lived together. 2. the horrible wood paneling on the walls, and 3. my grandmother's owl collection clustered along the living room wall. I never cared much for them growing up, but recently I started to see owls pop up in stores and I couldn't help but think about the times when we lived with her and how close we all became during those days.
