Hello 2012!

Okay, okay, I know. Very bad blogger, Spoon!

The end of 2011 was a lot hairier than I expected. I wrapped up some big projects at work, had a typically busy  end-of-year social life, did a whack of home renos and…to top it all of – a raging sinus infection that had me at my couch’s mercy for the last two weeks of the year. So you’ll have to excuse me for being extremely negligent in blogging.

I did manage to push out another cookbook – not the same concept I had started with, but I’m proud to show off some of the great work I did last year.

So what about 2012?

I set five resolutions for the year and two of them are food related. The first one was to blog at least every two weeks and discuss whatever it is that has caught my food interest. So this could be to document something I have made, but I’m hoping I will write more about food observations and memories. The second is to eat vegetarian for an entire month. I think I may make small allowances for seafood, especially if I am eating out but it will be pretty limited. My target is for April or May, as I do like to reserve my meat eating for BBQ season!

I’m thinking both of these goals can be accomplished. For the writing, it’s about making time and really committing to it. For the vegetarian month, I was a veggie for a few years so I’m thinking it won’t be that difficult. My goal there is to be as creative as I can with vegetarian eating, and I’ll definitely be documenting it all here!
