Sometimes a cup of good hot chocolate can make you feel better. Or maybe a chocolate bar. Or ice cream. Pick your poison.
Things as of late haven’t been so nice at all and I guess the lack of posts here reflect the general atmosphere offline. I think you’ll really know if something is going on when you don’t even have the energy to enjoy your passions.
Enter comfort foods. Sure it won’t solve any problems but it does make you feel better. It won’t take out the hives and anxiety attacks either. But heck, it’s nice to cling to some temporary relief.
Writing has always been therapeutic for me, and my attitude towards life is pretty much the same as with writing: I can’t do it half arsed. And so I couldn’t bring myself to post.
I got myself an iphone a month ago and I found a rather good use for it: blog and email when I’m at the coffee shop to just relax. I’m at a cafe right now and nursing another episode of migraine.
Just wanted to let you know we’re still here and alive! It’s just one of those blogging lulls, so please bear with us. We’re glad you’re still visiting. And thanks for the birthday and congratulatory greetings. Perhaps I’ll entertain you with the cake and proposal story on a better day.
I’m trying to get out of this funk. I bought ingredients for banana bread and sweet corn ice cream. For my birthday, my parents gave me a sexy black Kitchenaid stand mixer from the professional series and I hope to finally use it. I didn’t want to break it in because it’ll get dirty. Ahaha.
Hope all is well with you. Cheers foodies.

No problem, Joy. When you started out with “chocolate bar” I thought the comfort food you were going to be talking about was Chocnut!

So sorry you’re feeling in a funk. We’ll still be here when you feel better!
Oh, and I have it on good authority that Kitchenaids like gettin’ dirty, so go ahead and break it in! It’ll make you both feel better.

Hi guys - if it makes you feel any better I’ve been in the same spot for the last couple of weeks. I am really fighting my way out of it though - one thing that is helping is rediscovering some of the books I’ve bought recently on food - totally inspiring to reawaken the passion for good food.
Take good care -
