Ciao!-Guten Tag!

I am typing to you now on a German computer on German-style blogger.com. Ich spreche kein deutsche, so it's kind of slow going. The "z" and the "y" are switched on the keyboard and zou--I mean you have no idea how disruptive that is.

I never had time to post and say that I was leaving the country ... well, I did. I have just left Cinque Terre (Paradiso) and am now in Germany for a wedding. In a few days I will be back and I have many lovely pictures of Italian foodstuffs to post .... probably commencing Tuesday.

Tchüess!

Julieanne and I stayed in Cinque Terre as part of our honeymoon, all I have to say is PESTO!!!!!!!!!!! I love that fucking place, even the one town that's really small and you have to hike way up hill from the train station to get to it, we had the best gelato there

RESTAURANT: Pinkberry

So I finally tried this famous (infamous?) yogurt shop that has begun the conquest of Los Angeles. The yogurt that is called "crackberry" by many. What the L.A. Times calls "the yogurt that launched a thousand parking tickets" due to the notoriously bad parking situation in its original location and its customers tendency to wait in lines for hours. It's the newest thing, taking the place of cupcakes, it seems. It's a rebirth of the frozen yogurt fad of the late '80s, but this time it's different. This yogurt is different. So, my lazy ass might be persuaded to go there, even though it's outside my 2 mile radius of things around my apartment. If it's really that good, I would go the extra .1 mile. But I would not go the extra .1 mile, AND have to go crazy trying to find parking AND then have to wait in life until my hairs turn grey. Nothing is that good. But now there's one I can walk to, and the line is not that long, so we decided to try...

ABOUT THIS BLOG

I've been evaluating my blog and have realized that, while I have lots of nifty posts, I don't really have a good overall explanation of what exactly this blog is all about, and what one can expect to find here. So I'm creating this post and will link to it in the sidebar for anyone who's interested. I am not a professional chef. I have not been cooking for years. I am not an expert who is going to make beautiful and amazing and complicated dishes to "wow" you. I am, in fact, quite the opposite. I am a total beginner. I've always lived in places with miniscule kitchens and concerned myself with schoolwork and studying and working and not paid the least bit of attention to what I was eating every day. And that's what this blog is all about. It's about me learning where my food comes from, how to make it properly, and how to enjoy it to the utmost. It's no fun to learn by myself, so I started the blog to keep track of what I learn, kind of like a...
