oh blog... I know you probably don't remember me, but I'm the girl who used to write posts on you many times a month. I feel guilty now... like I completely abandoned you, but sometimes life happens.
The last few weeks of the school year were pretty busy, but they were especially HOT. Dan and I lost power on Father's Day while we were making dinner... which meant a very hot kitchen and apartment. A NYC summer gets so boiling, probably because of all the cement, that it is especially hard to really cook. (Can you imagine Marilyn Monroe cooking in this heat during
The Seven Year Itch??)
I do want to say that I have done some cooking and enjoyed some fine culinary experiences (chocolate dipped strawberries with Nicole, Bill's yummy pasta, mom's taboulli)... but somehow it did not get on the blog. It didn't help that the computer back home doesn't like blogger for some reason.
Then something else happened that certainly distracted me for awhile - an engagement! The Friday night before Independence Day Dan the Man popped the big question... so needless to say my mind has been occupied since (I said yes).
Anyway, I will be rejoining you very shortly - I have some great pizza ideas and I need to get those other meals up... and now I have wedding food to think about too.
I just need to remember that it's ok to take a breather... life happens.
