Well, I guess I’m going to really do this thing.  I don’t know how often I’ll be posting, or if it will be any good, or if anyone will even read what I write.

I’m still learning my way around the whole blog “thing”, so be patient with me.

My blog’s name is a play on the pronunciation of my last name – “Koch” is the German word for “cook” (which also happens to be how my husband’s family pronounces it). The inspiration for the title of the blog was the old “Cook’s Tour” from back in the day:

Cook’s tour  (Definition from Wiktionary, the free dictionary)

Lucky you – you get to “take the long road” through my world!  I hope you enjoy the journey – I don’t issue refunds…..
