Perhaps I Owe You An Explanation….
It’s no secret that I have been a little off radar for the tail end of this year. My family and I still eat well, but perhaps we entertain a little less. I still love food, but my attention has been split. I’m a little embarrassed to look at my recipe index and see how I’ve dropped from 8-10 posts a month to one. But I can explain.
Over the last three or four months I have been splitting my time between family, the day job and the passion project. I’ve been working the “9-5” then coming home and spending another three or four hours a day studying the world of wine once the kids were sleeping.
My wife, my incredibly supportive wife, has seen how torn I was between my love for my work and my dedication to my passion project, and it reached the point that something suffered.
My food writing suffered.
At least I still have all my hair.
I love that you’ve emailed me and tweeted me to tell me how you miss my writing. I love that we’re still connecting on Facebook and the good news is that I have a bunch of blog posts and wine tasting notes to share with you in 2015. So many photos ready to go and drafts ready to polish. And I strongly suspect that I am going to have a little more time to dedicate to you because…
I quit my day job.
You see. As of January 1, the day job and the passion project will marry as I step into the role of Director of Marketing and Customer Experience at KosherWine.com and it’s sister companies.
That’s how I know that I’ll have much more time to dedicate to food. And wine.
This wasn’t an easy decision to make, but I believe it’s the right decision and now I am able to dedicate my time to helping you find the perfect dish and the perfect wine pairing for every occasion.
I want help you find your new favorite wine.
So… here’s to a new beginning. New adventures… New wine. Here’s my promise that I’ll be sharing my recipes more often. I’ve missed writing, and I’m glad to be back.
Happy New Year!
