Rumors Of My Death...

Criminy... I almost forgot how to do this.

It's been a while. Way, way too long, in fact. The craziness of late summer and early fall only got more crazy, I became further distracted by other goings-on, and the next thing I know there's suddenly a two month gap in a blog I'd been updating almost daily for the better part of the year. Then, just as suddenly, the blogging bug bit me again this evening. I've missed it. A lot.

Of course, this is the kind of navel-gazing you couldn't care less about. Judging from the E-mails I've received recently, all anybody would like to know is if I'm still alive, if I ever intend to write again, and if so, when.

Yes, yes, and now.

But in an effort to both pace myself and provide a more predictable blog-reading experience, I'm going to take a crack at a regular posting schedule and see how it goes. Monday, Wednesday and Friday seems both appropriate and realistic, though we'll consider this a probationary period during which I'm open to suggestion. But my drive seems to have returned and I have a two month backlog of material, so I'm confident this'll go swimmingly and you can expect regular posting three days a week for the foreseeable future. Or at least until I become a father next month, at which time I'll either disappear again or inexplicably take a keen interest in vegetable purees.

Sorry for the unexpected hiatus, folks. Hopefully it'll be the last.

Nice to have you back. I poke in every once in a while to see if you've peeked out of your cave-- what a treat this morning! :)

I need to know who will win the Italian Beef-Off!! I'm glad the rumors or your demise are greatly exaggerated, and look forward to your future postings!!!!!

I was so lonely while you were gone I went out and started my own blog. It has nothing to do with food. Actually, today's entry does, in tangential fashion.

Anyway, really good to see you again. But becoming a father will definitely scrap the frequent posting, if my experience is any guide.

Hooray! Dinner inspiration returns! And if you're taking blog topic suggestions, the spouse and I are taking advice on what new pots and pans to invest in.
