Welcome!

Welcome to Life with Loralei!

One cool and windy night, I was in a rather rapid Facebook posting exchange with a friend when divine inspiration took place. My friend, who will remain nameless unless she "outs" herself, can't cook. I can, and I love it. Since we live too far apart, I can't have her over and help her down the road of culinary mastery. I thought that perhaps I could have some cooking lessons via a blog. I plan on starting out with some pretty basic things, as she confessed to setting things on fire when she tried to bake (and she wasn't trying to brulee anything at the time). Yes, I know there should have been an accent in brulee, but I don't know how to do that with this blog thingy...yet. It won't be long before she'll be cooking up a storm (and the fire department won't need to be alerted)!

So that was the inspiration. However, I also plan on using this space as an outlet for my verbosity (I'm sort of infamous for my lengthy typing and love of e-mails) and sharing some of my...well...LIFE! After all, it IS in the title. Besides, I should take pictures of something other than my cat.

Thank you for stopping by, and I hope that you enjoy your visits. (If you have any suggestions/requests as to what I should cook, please let me know!)
