Pre-date this baby.

First of all, I'd like to pre-date this to when I had originally intended to start... oh, let's say...

01/07/12

There. Much better.

Happy 2012! !Feliz año nuevo!
Among our many ambitious (and not at all over the top) new years resolutions, we vowed to join the blogosphere. Because, why not? If our bloggin' icons can quit their day jobs, tool around on the internet, post up pics, and write all day, then by God, why can't we? (Yes, we acknowledge it's more than "tooling around on the internet.")

Okay, so the real purpose of our blog was to chronicle our time spent here in the Windy City (ahem, that's Chicago if you just crawled out from under a rock) away from our families and friends (insert sad face :(... ) - while simultaneously attempting to act like responsible adults (which we mostly manage). And always, always dipping our toes outside of the realm of our comfort zone, with epic failures and successes along the way. 

We really wanted to do a "he said/she said" publication, but those were all taken (don't even go look for them, they're lame-o). We like to think when we're on top of our game we can bust out some punch lines, and a his'n hers perspective on a bajillion things. We've only been attached at the hip fo'life, so we practically finish..."each other's"...."sandwiches." Gotcha. 

But since those were unattainable, we've settled on this baker/brewer theme, which in no way do we intend to post never ending pictures of food porn (don't hold me to that. -A), but to signify our differences in strengths and hobbies. 

John, the amateur brewer (one batch, choking it down) and champion beer drinker. And me, Abby, the surprisingly awesome baker. Yup. 

Fingers crossed for some snow (you know, because it's January... winky face)! 

....we know that's not going to happen.

Our block, Winter 2012.
