me, myself and I

My name is Abby and I'm a foodie. I love to eat, drink, cook, talk and read about food. This is going to be my first attempt at writing about these experiences and sharing them with you. By trade, I'm a new professional in the field of nutrition and dietetics. I currently work in research at the University of Vermont overseeing subject recruitment and various testing. I also dabble in consulting part-time for a local physical therapy company which usually involves general healthy eating and overall weight loss, although occasionally the more complicated issue will arise. I also have a background in cooking, working for a few years in pastry and commercial kitchens. Which I must admit, is a little comical that someone that has an interest in health and food truly enjoyed working with pounds of butter, flour and sugar daily. Everyone needs to let loose once and a while and I wanted to be the one taking them to their "happy place".
