Chef Alicia ....sort of

Hello Blogosphere!

Since this is my first official post on The Plastic Spoons, I feel that introducions are in order.

I am a third year student at the University of Western Ontario, in the Media, Information & Technoculture program and I am writing this blog as a class project.

I have chosen to write my blog about life as a student, and specifically learning to feed myself with endless budget, time and skill constraints !

That being said, I would like to release a short disclaimer. I am not a professional chef or nutritionist, so despite the fact that I will be sharing my trials and tribulations with the WWW, do not take my experiences as final word.

I plan to blog about my favourite recipes, my own creations, some health concerns facing students, budgeting for groceries. I want to make them fast, simple and stretch your dollar as far as possible.

I can't promise that everything will turn out perfect, but I sure hope it will at least be entertaining!

Stay tuned to what I'll stir up this semester
