Foodie Question (and a chance for lurkers to say hi!)
First of all, Happy April Fools Day!
I’ve been doing this blog for a little over 18 months and I have to say, it has grown into a much bigger part of my life than I ever thought it would. I’m really enjoying it. Like most other bloggers, I especially love when people leave comments for me. It reminds me that people really do read along as I bake my way through life.
So today I’d like to ask everyone to come out and post a comment. Whether you’ve been following along from the beginning, or just recently found my blog; even if you’ve never commented on this or any other blog, or if you’re a comment addict, I’d love to hear from you! I’ll even give you a topic.
What is your biggest accomplishment in the kitchen? If you don’t have a specific kitchen related accomplishment, how about something else you’re proud of in life? Maybe even a great April Fools prank?
Thanks to all my readers. I hope you’ve enjoyed the ride as much as I have. There are plenty of new posts piling up under Drafts that need to get published, and I’ll soon be featuring the adventures of a Beantown kitchen remodel! Hang on tight, it’s going to be a wild ride.
Oh, and if you’re reading this in a feed reader, click through to see my newly revamped layout and design. I couldn’t have done it without the help of The Cutest Blog on the Block. Let me know what you think.
I’ll share my answer to the topic. My biggest accomplishment in the kitchen has been overcoming some major fears in the kitchen. Yeast was the biggest one. In the past year I’ve made bread, yeast pretzels, and yeast cinnamon rolls! I get inspired by many other food bloggers out there and plan to keep chugging through my list of must-bake recipes.
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
Very neat idea! I may have to try this out, since our house is filled with empty walls at the moment.
Aww this is such a cute idea! I’m not married yet, but when I am, I might consider it… It’s so classy-looking too 🙂

Love the idea and had to send it to my husband. You are so creative – what an excellent job putting it together! Thank you for posting.
What a great idea! Such a fun experience for you both to share! I’ve always wanted to make a map like this and you just gave me the motivation to do it 🙂 I love the map you used!
i made one of these for hubby for our first Christmas together. unfortunately we haven’t had as many opportunities as we hoped to travel so ours looks sad with the lackage of pins 🙂
I love this idea and it’s something we want to do too. Thanks for the motivation! Oh and we’ve been married 5 years so ours will be a not-so-newlywed map too. 😉

Love this idea! Thanks for sharing, I really want to do this!
That’s so crazy…I was just thinking about doing something like this the other day. I guess that means that I need to get on it. Thanks for the idea!
LOVE THIS! Ordering my map NOW!
Is this map only for heterosexual couples? haha j/k. You just wrote hubby (I guess you’re assuming all of your readers are females and are straight), and I was taken aback. This would be great for whenever my future wife and I get married. Thanks for sharing! It really is a cool idea!
Memória – I hope I didn’t offend you. I wasn’t making any assumptions about my readers. I was just speaking the way I talk. This map could be perfect for anyone or any group of people.
I looove this idea! I’m going to do it, even though I’m not married 🙂
