Five years ago, I started this wee blog. Can you believe it? My first real post was actually about a super taster test that Charles and I both took. I had no idea where I was going with this blog. I just wanted a space where I could write things that didn't involve the writing I did for my job. We had recently purchased a small house that had originally been intended as a vacation home. Charles and I soon realized that buying a home from the '70s that had a lot of deferred maintenance was going to require a great deal of our attention.
That attention also meant that along with writing and art and food, this blog also began to talk about the trials and tribulations of trying to fix up our home. Eventually, the lifestyle and home improvement posts took over to such an extent, I created a new blog for my food and wine posts. I mean, people who know me are used to how I jump around from subject to subject without an obvious stream of consciousness, but there was no reason to subject my readers to the crazy bouncing my brain does. Mostly. I have a gut feeling that 2015 is going to present a lot of changes for my Charles and me. I have no idea where those changes will take us, or even what they might look like, but if you've been reading this blog o' mine for any length of time, you know that we're not strangers to change. My Book Syrup blog and my pixyofwhimsy persona have always been mutable, and there's no reason to think that will stop any time soon. So what does that mean for my five year old site? I guess we'll all have to tune in to find out. |
Book SyruPA blog about writing, art, projects, or whatever else tickles my fancy. |
