  • Thanks for your notice! I’m sorry you’re retiring the blog, but it’s good to hear that you’re continuing work into culinary history.

  • I hope you leave the blog up. The posts were so enjoyable that I plan to look for your book. I’m a conscientious objector to Facebook, stopped doing Instagram when they started forcing videos on the front page so that I never saw my friends pictures anymore, and I don’t like Twitter for the same reason I prefer books to short stories.

    So I’ll never seen any of your material in the new places you post. In spite of a strong interest in food history I probably never would have come across your book if it weren’t for this abandoned blog. I went to the new website, but it’s not the kind of hobbyist, brain-dump website I like. It’s a sleekly polished advertisement, and there’s nothing there to hold me. If I’d found that first, it wouldn’t have sparked such a strong interest in your writing.

    On old blogs like these (almost all abandoned) I see enough of the way someone’s mind works, and their craft, that I want to see more. I feel a connection, even if it’s not a personal one. Facebook doesn’t produce that, even though ironically it’s supposed to.

    Anyway, I’m disappointed it’s a dead blog–but this scrap pushed into the corner was the thing that got me excited about your writing.
