June 26: Went to a local coffee shop and started Inspiralized.
June 27: Started my Facebook page.
July 8: Bought “Blogging for Dummies,” “Will Write for Food” and “Plate to Pixel” which I owe for most of my food photography and blogging success.
July 10: Got an official logo for Inspiralized.
July 11: My first photo submission was accepted on Foodgawker – my Broccoli Rabe Zucchini Pasta with Spicy Italian Sausage.
July 18: My first guest post! It was on Hoboken Girl.
August 6: Registered my LLC.

I hope this timeline inspires someone to go for it. Your dreams can come true – slow and steady wins the race, but it is possible!
What was my favorite recipe of the year?
Gosh, that’s hard! It would probably have to be my Lemon Garlic Broccoli Zucchini Pasta with Prosciutto and Toasted Breadcrumbs.
