Jeez - look at this place! All delapidated & dusty - it's the Shrieking Shack of blogs, it appears. Shameful. Just shameful.
I've had an idea brewing around in my head for a little while, though, with regards to what to do with this blog. Obviously, in a world where social networks like Facebook are the main "go-to" when it comes to keeping up with friends and family, blogs like this tend to wilt and die on the vine due to neglect and lack of time, interest or in my case, a little of both. Why duplicate work, right?
But, I still kept it around. I guess you could call it my "boppy". That's what we called the kids' respective chew-toys/security blanket thingees that they've had since they were babies. They may not want it or need it every moment of the day, but it's something that brought them comfort and security, with no desire to get rid of them anytime soon. Plus, I have a lot of good memories on here that I'd hate to see go down the World Wide Crapper.
But, I just don't have the time to keep up any sort of regular writing blog, not with the crazy schedule that we find ourselves maintaining while we try to keep up with the kiddos. So, it was a quandry. And, as evidenced by the date of my last entry, you can see that this place got a little... neglected.
So, what to do?
And then it hit me one day as I was perusing the various foodblogs that I follow (Serious Eats and Ree Drummond's "The Pioneer Woman Cooks", just to name a few!): why not do a variation of that myself? Now that I can link this directly with both Facebook and the Twitterers, it would combine many of my great loves and interests into one compact and neatly-wrapped package, right? So, that's the idea with which I've been toying for the past couple of months. We'll see. Oh, yes, we'll see... :)
What do you guys think?
