Lets recap:

The Good

  • Fancy new magazine-styled layout
  • Comics!
  • Appetizer links to fun foodie news
  • Improved photograhy

The Bad

  • Post counts were down
  • Excuses came easy
  • Posts about not posting
  • Not enough pastry

Big changes happened last year for the foodgeek household. We sold our house in MA and once again moved cross-country, back to San Diego in September, to start over again. All of this excitement seriously impacted the post counts. Getting a house ready to sell, packing up a house, and driving 3000 miles is quite the time-consuming task!

Resolutions are in order for 2010! More posts, improved photography, more fan-interaction, and possibly some foodgeek merchandise. Some subtle site tweaks were made recently: a fancy new logo, a group photoand updated about page, and access for mobile web devices. We’re going to stick with this slick theme for the time being, even if it is a bit time consuming to use.

Please stick with us in the new year, send us requests, send us your recipes to try, challenge us to a cook-off, or just say hi. We love to hear from everyone!

It has been almost a month since my last post! I think I have some excuses I can use…

  • My dogs were sick
  • I’ve been eating nothing but ramen and take-out
  • my camera is in the shop
  • There’s no food in my house to cook
  • I was buried under 100ft of snow

While some of these things may be somewhat accurate, the truth is I’ve just been kind of lazy. I’ve found a flaw in my posting system and I’ll try and remedy it for the future. I’ve spoken with the eater and I will not let this happen again. Everyone should bookmark this post and send it to me 100 times if I even go two weeks without posting again.

Enough with the excuses, now how about some teasers?

  • New daring bakers post coming up for this weekend. (here’s a hint, holiday goodness!)
  • I’ve been growing some green things in the dead cold!
  • More macarons
  • Cookies!
  • Candies!
  • Cupcakes! (oh my!)

Even more good things to come in the new year, too. Please hang in there while we work out our growing pains.
