Diary of The Food Whore

Check me out over at Damomma….

And if I actually read the book Wordpress for Dummies, I could insert that link.

Damnit.

And let’s be honest, so does my blog.

I go 100 mph every day and by the time I get home I have so many thoughts to share but I just sit and stare and stare and then I get distracted by something shiny.

And then I make a lemon drop.

I am kind of in… burn out mode. Too many irons in the fire, and not enough fire to back it up. I’ve been in this mode for a long time and The Husband sat me down a few nights ago and gave me a little pep talk (read: lecture) about realizing that I can’t do all things and be all things. (He’s such a buzz killer)

And as much as it kills me to say this - he is right. Internet, don’t tell him I said that.

But I do need some time off to sit back and be a little less crazy. And fortunately I have an amazing staff who is willing to do whatever they can to make it happen. Their willingness is incredibly sweet, although I am no fool to know it is less about them being nice, and more about wanting rid of me for a while.

And I cannot blame them.

So I am taking a few weeks off from it all - from The Restaurant, The Tricking, and The Blog. The first 2 will be managed wonderfully in my absence, but the third - this blog - needs my time to sit, get some help with making her pretty again, and getting things back on track.

Thank you to my long time readers for being so loyal and for the wonderful e-mails. I do read them, I just don’t always have the time to reply to them. For those who left long ago - who can blame them. This place has become a broken down trailer, and it is time to fix that.

So on June 1st I will be back, refreshed, and hopefully all pretty and shiny. But in the mean time I will be posting links to food blogs I find along the way and have fallen in love with. I sit and look at all the shiny pictures and pretty colors and sigh with complete admiration and envy.

I want to be pretty and shiny when I grow up, too.

So I am on a break, but I will be back. Thank you for your patience.

And to the lady who sent me Vodka - you rock.
