That was going back a year or more. At that time, I was posting MY
menus in an artful and creative way. It disturbed many and the
insecure came out of the woodwork condemning.

It didn't take long to learn that if you post a recipe, there will be
"the vicious six" of RFC that could belittle, berate, and just
generally **** all over any recipe if you didn't fit into the
"clique". I could accept that....I remember third grade and later
tenth grade. Immaturity can run the gamut from youth to old farts in
the "home". Funny how those milestones stick in your mind....

But I digress. A renewed interest in photography, guidance from my
son, a professional photographer, (I know where he got his talent)
began my adventure in photographing food. He is a portraiture artist,
but he gave me many tips and hints using a SLR digital. A whole new
world opened and I knew at that point, I needed to start learning HTML
and how to create a blog...the be all and end all of displaying good
food and recipes. Now I find this medium (usenet) so 1980's...if
you know what I mean. Geez....can't even click on a link without
ruffling feathers. <vbg>

Since that time I have never looked back and enjoy a thousand hits per
month with people that actually enjoy my photos, recipes and general
good fun that we have. Join me sometime.
