Bringing back the food blog
I have had the most exhausting few months at work. And it just kept getting worse and worse. I think I was working during all waking hours last week.
But today I did something I haven't done in a while. I worked an 8 hour workday. And then I stopped. Not because I had something to do, but because my 8 hours were up and it was time for me to End of Day.
Anyway, I've been meaning to get back to the food blog. But I'm kind of sick of Wordpress. I looked into alternatives. Ghost seemed promising, but I already got annoyed when I tried to install it, and my tolerance for dealing with annoying things in new pieces of technology are very low, so I gave up on that quickly. I decided that the best thing for me to do was to just build the site myself. When I first started flailing in my kitchen I didn't want to do that at all. I didn't want to be a Sysadmin. But, there is something rewarding about setting up a site yourself. So that's what I'm doing now. I made one blog post, and it's a total mess on the inside, but I'm happy with what I've got so far.
Update: When I first created v2, I made it part of this domain, under the path "/flailing", while the flailing site still had my old blog. I updated the link above to actually point to flailinginmykitchen.com.
