Infrequent Doesn't Even Begin to Describe It...

Hi! I'm still here, I promise. I know it's been ages since I've actually updated here, but I have still be cooking, and running, and even sometimes taking pictures of food. But it hasn't really been my primary focus in life. So rather than bother to morph this into something beyond a food blog, I just stopped updating.

But y'know what? Non-food blogs are okay, too. As are blogs about, well, life, which also includes food sometimes. And what is this life I speak of, you may wonder? Well, one of the first things that has taken up my time is that I have been writing. Those of you who read my blog previously may remember occasional posts in November about this crazy plan to write 50,000 words of a novel in a month. And I did. And it was good.

Well, okay, it was terrible, but I learned lessons along the way, and plotted out another novel, started writing it, and promptly abandoned it. I actually did this three times. So I dug out my writing folder, and took a look-see and saw that, hey, some of this stuff isn't too bad. So I kept going on it. So yeah, writing is awesome. And will consume your life if you enjoy it.

I've also been cooking, but it's summer, and in summer I cook a lot less complicated. I did host a 4-course dinner party with a friend, which was awesome. The star of the evening was handmade egg pasta with slow-roasted tomatoes, so I'll share a picture of that.

But mostly I've been keeping busy with ecclectic pursuits. Maybe I'll be better about sharing them with you more often.
