Wordpress and I have had our ups and downs, but I have to say every time I stray from it I invariably return. While Blogger has the ability to edit my CSS and templates as a free customer, Wordpress has room to grow. So I urge those following me on here to check out the new home (and new name!) of this blog over at:
http://afoodrevolution.wordpress.com
The focus, as always, will be on good wholesome food that everyone can do with minimal effort, and often with minimal time. I'm still tweaking the layout and information over there, but the recipes are up for all currently.

A Few Notes for Readers
I love food, and while I love photography - it's no longer my main passion. My kitchen is small, and poorly lit thanks to switching to all CFL bulbs that cast a strange yellowish tinge to my photos now. As a consequence, my posts here may not have the most glamorous photos - in fact, I'll guarantee they won't be. Most will be taken with my trusty Blackberry - not the world's best camera. The point to that is this - great food doesn't require a massive setup in equipment, time or even energy. I have a family to feed, so oftentimes photos are the last of my worries. I like to get my meals on the table while they are still hot and we can enjoy the complexity of the dish - not to let it get cold while I set up and snap that perfect photo for my blog.
In the same stream, I will say I do not post recipes on this forum without either the author's permission, or unless it's something they've posted on their own site for free use due to intellectual property rights. I do always back link to the original authors and notate any changes that I've made personally to the original dish. I may give an accounting and a photograph of other dishes, but I will not post the recipe in it's entirety - so if you see something you love but I've not provided details, please look into getting the cookbook at your local library to give it a shot. That's how I get most of my cookbooks, and when I find one I absolutely adore, I order it directly from Amazon or another retailer.
