So, to know that others out there are partaking in our meals — even just with their eyes — makes a world of difference. As I cook for my little family, and sometimes friends and neighbors, I also cook for you readers, hoping that along the way, you receive these meals and turn them into expressions of your own, sharing them with those you love.

Especially to Biscuits and Rebecca--it's so fun to know how readers come to the site and what they enjoy about it; thanks for sharing! And, Biscuits, any friend of Rorie's is a friend of mine :) Rebecca, you have expressed exactly how I feel about recipes--each one is a multilayered gift that keeps on giving if you share it, and I LOVE that. Rorie, Do you know anyone who REALLY likes to read stuffy academic prose? Kalyn, I think teaching anyone to write is potentially difficult (no matter their age). The trick for me is getting them to write about something that means something to them. Then it becomes a whole new activity. I bet you're a great teacher! And in case any of you were wondering, Lizzie is my sister (she's also the one who, without any authority whatsoever, declared the king cake the winner in my Paper Chef post!) Liz, you should really read some of those columns some time. They are really hilarious. I think Grandmother saved them all. Hi everyone,

What a beautifully written and heartfelt post - I know exactly what you mean about creating your blog to write about what you love because I feel the same way about art criticism that you do about literary criticism!

A "blogged recipe" seems more like a precious gift -- first from the blogger to me, then from me to my family. It's personal and has substance even before the cooking starts!

I'm a friend of Rorie's (Milk & Honey). I don't have a blog of my own, but I've really enjoyed reading Rorie's and checking out the links to her site. It's nice to find out about other people and the things that they love. I'm a stay-at-home mom now, so not so much with the getting out and meeting new people. (Although part of me still wonders, "Is it ok that I'm writing to you? You don't know me. I'm just a friend of a friend.") Anyway, I have enjoyed reading various food blogs and have been inspired to crack out the cookbooks and try new things like I used to. (Run-on sentence, dangling participle. Sorry.) Hi.

I love that you are a writing teacher. I guess I am too, although teaching fourth graders to write is very difficult with some students. Like you, I always loved writing from a very early age. Food blogging really satisfies all three of my creative urges so perfectly: creating new recipes, writing and photography. I really enjoyed reading this. I love that you are a writing teacher.
