Its about time

Happy New Year and welcome to Discovering Grits, my little space to vent, learn and display all my concerns about actually having to be a big girl. Having recently moved from Florida to South Carolina- I just witnessed my first snow storm of my adult life. It was a beautiful blanket of snow which quickly turned to ice which I have never had the pleasure of driving in. At the same time my son had his first bout with pneumonia, my husband was recovering from arthroscopic foot surgery and I was trying to start a diet which failed miserably when we were 'snowed' in and I found a recipe for browned butter icing and just happened to have a box of chocolate cake laying around.   
So here is to new beginnings. Check back soon for recipes, photographs and life lessons I've learned and continue to learn as a mother, wife, and newbie blogger.
