I'm an Artist and a Businesswoman

Hi everyone, Alicia here, I am excited to embark on this adventure with you. My motivation for participating in this experiment can best be described in a Three Things post.

1. Health aspect - I have struggled with my weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle pretty much all my life. I am constantly trying to find a balance that works for me and that I am at my happiest. In all my research and progress I have realized how important diet is, and I firmly believe the over-processed, nutrient-stripped food that is prevalent and quick contributed to my childhood obesity.  We need to get back to basics overall and this is one great way to start, with a food that is delicious and nutritious. From Farm to Table.
2. Possibility of profession fulfillment - I am very grateful for my career and have worked hard for my education, however, I often lack a sense of fulfillment, I think this could turn into a hobby that would provide me with that accomplishment, producing a good product that I can feel passionate about. I have already begun to run away with business plans and profitable ideas (I blame all those marketing classes) but even is this ends up just being something that I become really great at and can share with my friends and family as gifts I will be grateful for the additional project and think having it as an outlet could even make me better at my current career. (Or we could become world renowned Goat Milk connoisseurs! Oprah says to visualize people!)
3. Fun and Creativity – What could be better than dreaming up new flavors with some great friends and learning a new skill in the kitchen?

So far Lance, Doug and I have sourced a place to get fresh goat milk and have been looking up basic recipes to get our feet wet. We’re hoping to report soon about our first goat cheese making day.

So for now, NEEAAAHHH! That’s goat for goodnight.
