The final guest post by one of the food bloggers I've adopted
through the Adopt-a-Blogger mentoring program. (Please be sure to visit
their terrific blogs.) Today, meet Maris of In Good Taste, the third blog I adopted. An account executive with a large public relations firm, Maris writes about healthy cooking -- with some indulgences -- for worknights, date nights, and the rare at-home nights of a busy twenty-something woman in New York City.

When Lydia adopted my blog last year, I immediately learned that we had a lot in common. Of course we share a love for cooking and writing. Beyond that, we both grew up in the New York/New Jersey area, we're both avid fans of Top Chef, and we both like to travel.
There is, however, one undeniable difference between Lydia and me.
I am a self-proclaimed dessert fanatic, and she doesn’t have a big sweet tooth.
I would turn my oven on in hundred-degree heat if it meant chocolate fudge brownies, while Lydia prefers cooking to baking any day of the week.
When the mood to bake strikes me, chocolate chip cookies, yeast breads and quick breads tend to call my name. I like to follow rough formulas –- this much flour to that much baking soda, this many eggs to that much sugar. Once I have the foundation for a recipe in mind, I tinker with it and make it my own, by adding nuts or fruits, or some of my new Vietnamese cinnamon.
