I've been gone way too long. Way, way too long. I've often thought of starting again - it feels bad to simply let something I poured so much effort into over the years fall by the wayside. There were several things standing in the way I think. Firstly, although I still love eating food, the actual preparation of it doesn't quite fill me with the same excitement. Additionally, my main interest ...
Oh boy - I'm sitting here staring at my computer and I must admit... I'm almost not quite sure what to do. Where do you begin when you've been away for so long? Well, how about I just start talking about how my summer's been, and then I'll see where that leads?

Warning: This post has a high calorie and fat content. People trying to achieve a bit of pre-Christmas weight-loss should probably not venture any further.

That was three and a half months ago. Far too long, and I'll excuse myself in advance because I'm sorely out of the habit of writing, as you may have noticed from my weirdly disjointed sentences thus far. The sad fact is that ...
Hi folks, those of you who also have blogs that I follow will no doubt have noticed that I haven't been especially regular in stopping by of late. My own posting schedule has suffered and I have to admit it: I'm a bit frazzled. It feels like there are a million and one things to do, and never enough hours in the day.
