Hi There!

I've been wanting to start a cooking blog or a while now, but had one major set back...a name! For months I drove myself nuts trying to think of the perfect blog name. Then yesterday, while watching hours of football and thinking about what I wanted to make for 'Sunday Dinner', it came to me- Wannabe Phoodie. It might not be perfect, but it's pretty accurate.
I'm Jess, I grew up and in Florida and moved to Philadelphia a year and a half ago. Everytime I tell people that the next question is WHY PHILLY?! Well I needed a change, got an awesome new job..so I packed up a u-haul, my cat and was Philly bound with no idea what to expect. Philly surpassed all my expectations. I love it here! The city, 'philly fans', the people, the culture, the four seasons, and most of all the food. I have always had a love for food. With an Italian mother and Greek father, food was always a given.. The purpose of this blog is to share my love for cooking and food. Enjoy.
