What am I doing with a blog?!

Hello all!
This is my first attempt at a blog...so brace yourselves...this could get ugly.  First a little bit about me; I am currently working on finishing a Bachelor's in Spanish at Southern Nazarene University.  I have just one semester left, and my wonderful Spanish professor, Dr. Johnson, and I were trying to come up with some different ideas for some spanish credits.  We came up with this idea...I must read the novela por Laura Esquives "Como Agua Para Chocolate" en espanol, but oh no, that's not all I must do, I am to cook and blog my way through this novela as well.
If you know nothing of this wonderful book (yes folk, it does have an English version as well!), you should google it right now and check it out!  This little novela is written in monthly installments of recipes and is full of romance and drama.  And for all you non-readers out there, don't worry, it was made into a movie!
So for this "blog", I will be submitting bilingual blogs about my time spent reading and cooking throughout this semester's course.
