Presenting The Faux Gourmet!

The Faux Gourmet has been on hiatus for a while. I began this blog as a creative outlet during law school. After law school, I started other blogs on other topics and no longer needed this as a creative outlet, not to mention my diminishing free time.

But I kept cooking, kept taking food pictures and garden pictures, kept wanting to share the little tidbits of what I'd made. I occasionally did this on my personal blog (to which, I'm sure, people yawned and wondered when I'd post another cat picture). But I started to miss this space. Of all the blogs I have, this format, culled over several dedicated years and incorporating that adorable illustration by Sam Wedelich (see info the left) is by far my favorite.

So I'm back!

Expect short and sweet posts. Less food porn, more recipes and tips. If you want food porn you can look at any of the 5000 million existing food blogs. I don't have good lighting in my apartment and don't have time to style plates. I just want to make something yummy and eat it. If that sounds ok with you, stick around.

Looking forward to being back in touch!

    Thanks + WITP "in the news" + What's Next


    Thanks:
    I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has been visiting What's in the Pot? I've really enjoyed hearing how you've enjoying the photos, stories & recipes. I hope to spend some time making the format for What's in the Pot? even better over the summer- so keep checking in!

    In the News: What's in the Pot? was recently on the Tacoma Art Museum website (for the recent post Thrice All American.) Find it--and read more about the museum--here.

    I know being on Tacoma Art Museum's blogosphere update because I reviewed Tacoma Art Museum hardly counts as being "in the news" but until Gourmet magazine picks me up, it's all I have to offer.

    What's Next:
    Today I had a chance to revisit Tacoma, checking up on some of the favorite spots I mentioned in the previous Tacoma entry (linked above). I had coffee with the best foam ever at Cutters Point Coffee, another great Thai lunch at Galanga, and felt like I was a local thanks to the homey neighborhood feel of One Heart Cafe (so it is One Heart after all!). And yup, I did some shopping at the very cool Urban Xchange. Looking forward to writing about it soon & posting some pics of my own.
