2013 – Some New, Some Old

Time really flies by; it seems like yesterday when I was contemplating on starting a blog to pen down my experiments in the kitchen and write about my new found love for running. 

It’s been 9 months since my first post; with each new write –up I have learned something new, come across some incredibly talented people in the blog world.

During my journey during these last months I have come to realize that the blog has been more about food, rather a lot about food and very little about running. When in reality I spend equal time doing both! I often wondered why there was a block writing about running and not about food.

So this year I plan to bring in a few changes ….

• 21 Days of Healthy Eating -  New Year with New Beginnings – from 1^st to 21^st of January 2013, I am going to follow a soup, salad / steamed vegetable diet, with no refined sugar. I have loaded the house with vegetables and fruits. Currently very positive about  completing this challenge successfully! Keep reading to find out how it’s been going in the future posts.

• Improve My Food Photography:  Its a world of very talented and creative people out there who take the job of making food 'look good' very seriously. Going forward I want to take more efforts to learn this art. I think I have a basic flair towards creativity, but have to do a lot of work on my photography skills.. lets see how that works out! P.S - I am not going to invest in a new camera, will work with my current point & shoot.

• Blog about Running - Have to make a sincere effort to blog about my training routine at least once a week. Every time I start out, I cannot get beyond 2 lines, my try is going to be converting 2 lines  into 20 lines at least.

• Half Marathon and some more running - Without an aim running gets very monotonous; my aim for this year is to finish another half marathon. And complete 10k in 1 hr 10 minutes – my current time is 1 hr 24 minutes.

• Eating Consciously -   I love food be it vegetarian, non- vegetarian, healthy, fried, deep fried, vegan, junk I enjoy it all. But I am also aware of its side effects so this year I want to me more conscious of what am going to eat. Enjoy everything in moderation and keep running to work it out.

• Live Life Kingsize – I don’t have other resolutions / plans for the coming year, like 2012 I want to make the most of each day and live life to the fullest! Cook, serve and eat good food, spend time with family n friends. Keep in touch with my loved ones more in person or phone calls in case of long distance rather than Facebook, Sms or Whats app and make a few new friends.

That’s all from me.. Cheers!
