breakfast of champions

3 questions:
1. Would you like it better if I started a separate food blog, or kept blogging about food here?

2. Is it bad to have Fage yogurt with a spoonful of homemade dried apricot jam for breakfast every single day? (if it's wrong, I don't wanna be right.)



3. Have you seen Jamie Oliver's TED talk? It's pretty great.

    That Jamie Oliver. Crucial talk. I can't tell you how much this issue gets to me. Thanks for sharing. Just emailed this out to as many people. 20 minutes well worth spent. Thanks Abigail.

    Oh and that yogurt- YUM. My lunch yesterday too!

    Jamie Oliver's is a good guy, deserves our praises! You have to decide to keep your delicious recipes in the same blog or not dear... I adore your blog cos' of all your wonderful interests under the same roof! ps: thanks for the link, that's quite a scary revelation on banana crops~sigh*

    I like seeing your recipes here! But I already subscribe to such a huge number of blogs that it's easier for me if they are just combined. People with lower levels of blog addiction might like the separation.

    1) Keep blogging about food here.
    2) No. Live it up!
    3) Yes. He brought up some very interesting points. Every kid should know a potato when she/he sees one.

    wow! it seems it's unanimous!
    I though some people might not like all the food porn, but I guess I was wrong!

    Food blogging will stay here.

    Chiara- I think I'm using a bigger spoon than you are.

    Keep the food blogging here. I've thought about starting a food blog myself, I even once started it, but I quickly became so overwhelmed by the work between two blogs that I gave it up. Not to mention, your food is part of who you are and I think it's awesome to share all of who you are in one fantastic spot.
    And Jamie Oliver. I don't have enough words. I try to watch one TED talk a day. I'm either learning or being inspired or both. (One of my secret life goals is to make it on that stage).

    Yes, Abigail I love your food posts! I like them here, but it is obviously your choice. I love, love Fage total 0 percent. I wish I could try it with homemade apricot jam! Fresh blueberries are pretty perfect, too.

    1. I like the mix, so for me, keep the food with the rest of your great posts.
    2. Nope, nothing wrong with that. If I had a jam looking like that, I would possibly do the same.
    3. Well, both what he says and how he says it get me.
