Back to blogging

Yuri visited Philadelphia this weekend! I found myself wanting to know all about the minutiae of her daily life in Rennes, especially about food: Butter comes in bricks, not sticks! The French think she's weird for bringing her lunch in Tupperware, instead of going to a restaurant or home to eat! It's inspired me to return to a long-abandoned project: making a little cookbook of things I make during the year to give my friends at Christmas. It's kind of like keeping a diary, since I spend most of my time (outside of work) picking recipes, grocery shopping, cooking, and having folks come over to help me eat it all.

I've got a bad track record of starting blogs, writing for two months, and then losing interest so I hoping that imposing some structure on myself will keep me at it. My goal is to try a bunch of recipes out, make notes here & choose at least 30 to codify my life in Philadelphia 2008.
