I'm not a vegetarian but I dislike factory farming and I support small, family farms.

Renewal
A quick glance down will see that I have been far behind in my posting here. VERY far behind. A careful reading between the lines should show you that the reason is work. But I'm going to take the first real signs of Spring in the Bay Area (it actually stopped raining) as an indication that it is time for some personal Spring cleaning. That means that I am not going to let my job rule my life anymore. At least not completely. However, I have left this decision late. Technically speaking, Friday is the launch of the next Paper Chef. But I'm not ready - at all. So...we are going to do it next Friday. Friday the 14th.
Other items of and for renewal - I'm going to take the trouble to refocus the blog back on its original purpose - the food I've cooked recorded so I don't forget about it - and some other interesting writing I've done for the same reason. Although I have a new project in that area that I'll stick up here in a later post.
Looking back, this blog has been going for almost four years - although it has only been actively posted to for three years. In that time I have made 382 posts. That's about a post every three days which is a pace I am very comfortable with. But lately I've been doing a post every two weeks or so - not good enough. I am going to go back and look at some of the old posts and see what worked and what didn't and try to do more of what worked and less of what didn't - a radical step but I'm a radical person.

thanks for pointing that out Haalo
And Owen, know that everyone hears you loud and clear on the work/life balance thing. I've been finding lately that keeping work from taking over my life is more difficult than many of the things I've accomplished so far in my life, which is something I'd never expected. Four years is a long time, so congrats, and don't be too hard on yourself. Although I'd definitely love to read more posts over here.
