You may recall that back in September I was all happy about my venison cooking site. Well, I became unhappy with it pretty fast. It turns out, I was having a hard time actually keeping it up-to-date. I should have used WordPress to begin with. So, I switched over. Now I’ve got a new site and I’m busily uploading all of my recipes to it. I’m much happier with it, although Rick is quick to point out that I’m never really happy with my web sites. Yes, this is my new hobby—designing web sites. It’s a lot of fun. Check out the new venison site.

The DC area is going nuts. We’re about to get hit with a very major snow storm. I say bring it on! I’ve stocked up on TP, popcorn, and coffee. My Christmas presents are wrapped. I welcome the opportunity to spend the weekend curled up on the couch with the first draft of “The Hunting Widow’s Guide to Great Venison Cooking, Volume 1.” In fact, I need a weekend to do that.

I’m getting so excited about this cookbook. I can’t wait to have everything pulled together and to hand it off to my very talented sister to design.

yep, bring on the snow!

I feel so accomplished! My cooking web site is live. I’m soliciting recipes for my cookbook, so if you have some venison recipes…or anything yummy using lamb or beef…upload it here.

I’m going to draw 10 names of people who submit recipes and give them a cookbook when it’s published.

Mostly I feel accomplished because I taught myself how to use joomla and joomla extensions to build the site. Not easy (not hard as web development goes, but not easy for a novice). If a real web developer designed the site, it’d look much prettier. But I’m happy with it. Check it out and let me know what you think!
