Passionate About Food

In other news, I have been wanting to get my own domain name for quite some time, and when I saw that Meghann took the plunge, I decided to take the plunge myself. I am officially, www.megansmunchies.com. Unfortunately, my blogroll disappeared in the transition. I will try to get it back up soon, but please don't take it personally if you don't see your blog back up immediately. It is going to be a work in progress.

The Secret Revealed

What does this mean for my blog? It won't change much. I will still be cooking and baking a variety of foods because my husband's diet won't be changing. My blog will continue to have the same content with the addition of some allergen free and vegan recipes. So....it will just be bigger and better! I would love any website suggestions or recipe suggestions to help me further learn how to construct my diet based on my food allergies!
