Why do I blog

Hey folks, sorry for not being in contact in recent days. Just to let you know. I am alive and still kicking. Well been kinda busy recently with stuff plus I am helping the fantastic FAHC cause. Some of you have already contributed recipes BUT we need more, so come on you lovely people please send then in, so we can fill the book with dishes we love. Hey it has to be the first whereby our dream of creating a book will consist of foodies being the authors. You have to admit thats pretty good right!!. So here is a chance to record authentic recipes, which will then remain timeless. It will capture what our mothers and grandmothers cooked (hey fathers and grandfathers too). Creating a book with recipes from the public domain is a tremendous achievement in itself. But hey that’s not all, well go one step further, all income generated will go towards feeding the hungry children. Wow, that is outstanding, is it not. Hey I can just visualise contentment on a child’s face with belly full of food, I am sure you can too. Thanks to all those that have contributed and thanks in anticipation to those that will. Without your help the objective will not be realised. Sp please help the cause and spread the word. Hey we still need kind hearted folks with professional expertise to help, see my previous post, so press gang your friends and relative. Thanks to those that have already offered help, we will be in touch.

Hey just wanted to mention why I blog recipes. To me it’s like a child, you know when they run home from school holding a picture that they have just painted or made a model of some sort. The enthusiasm and excitement on their faces is fantastic to see. Most of the times I don’t recognise what they have drawn but to them it’s a great creation which they want to share it with passion. To them the drawing is crystal clear and pure in nature. Well I am that child, I want to share my creation with my peers. I rush to place my creation on the dish, take a pic and post as fast as I can. I am not be that articulate, maybe I can't explain the method very well, my English maybe below standards, my pictures are blurry but hey it’s about sharing a creation. Am I a professional blogger, I think not, I only use the medium to share. That’s why I surf food blogs, to share in the creation of my fellow friends. I don’t comment if I don’t particularly like the dish but I will comment if its clear the person has devoted a lot of effort and time towards a particular dish. Finally if the blog looks great and written with flair then great but at the end of the day what counts is sharing in the creation, learing fron others and letting fellow bloggers know that that their effort is appreciated. Because one thing I have learned that blogging does take time and effort. Anyway, enough of my ramblings.

Now this child is hungry and about to enjoy Jyostnas creation which is drumsticks with besan flour for dinner tonite, bye for now.
