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!

    Twitter Me!

    Hello all,

    I just joined the ranks of Twitter at a friend's request. I don't totally get Twitter as a means of communication but I'll give it a shot. I'd be honored if you'd follow me (and I will return the favor, if you like). I don't really know what I'll be twitting about (what is the proper Twitty verb for creating a Twitter post?) but I can promise the foodie equivalent of name-dropping--noting the delicious things I'm eating & drinking at any given time. With any luck it will provide us both with a little cooking inspiration. Find me on Twitter as TheFauxGourmet. (Or see above to follow me.)

    I beleive that the proper term is tweet. "I just tweeted about my lunch." That's what I used anyway when I wrote about it on my blog: http://seattlefieldnotes.blogspot.com/
