So, my holiday weeked trip to Portland left me with the stomach flu, so coming up with ideas for my final blog post for my Comm class has proven difficult. I can barely keep water down, much less ponder the ideas of spanish tapas or duck a l'Orange or sushi. I know that on a food blog, the last thing I should talk about is being nauseous all the time, but it definitely affects my post for the week.
With that being said, I put it out to my blogging community to help me brainstorm some ideas. I know that I will feel better by the end of the week, so cooking won't be a problem by Sunday. What's your favorite meal? What did your mom used to make that always made you feel good? What's something that you've always wanted to try but haven't yet? Anything that inspires a memory or a feeling would be a great suggestion.
Even though this is the last required post for class, I am actually really enjoying the blogging process. It's a great way to keep track of what we've cooked, which recipes we've used and how we've altered them. It also gives the eaters the opportunity to suggest ideas, comment on the meal, and read about the menu ahead of time. I feel like it's one more stepping stone in preparing for my future in the food industry. Blogging reminds me to immerse myself on a daily or weekly basis in recipes, research, and discovery about what I'm passionate about. I had been meaning to keep better track of our process from the beginning, so I'm happy that I was pushed into the environment of blogging with help and support.
So, bloggers and blog readers... What should I cook this week? What sounds good to you?
