So, I’ve been thinking…
It’s been almost 3 months since this whole adventure began, and it’s been a good run so far. Vacation gave me a chance to concentrate on the site, and consider improvements that would make your experience better. WordPress.com was a fantastic starter for a newbie blogger like me, but it’s cousin wordpress.org is now calling. Plug-ins, page customization; I want you.
For this to happen, I need to take a small hiatus. In that time, I’ll be working to create a database of references and tutorials for you new cooks out there. I’ll cover everything from how to how scramble an egg to how to bake the perfect pie crust. In the future, more involved recipes will be concise, with links to techniques a beginner might need to know. Never sliced an onion before? There’s a link for that. Wondering how to go about roasting a squash? There’s a link for that, too. Information will be at your fingertips, but not in your face (for you more experienced cooks.) Oh, and there will be pictures. Lots and lots of pictures. Provident Potato 2.0 is coming.
Oh yes, and the emphasis will still very much be focused on using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Expect more scholarly articles on food policy as well–because the more you know, the easier it is to do what you know is right.
Stay tuned. Good things are coming….
