Help The Amateur Gourmet

June 9, 2004 | By | 4 Comments

Friends, I thought I could pull it off but my balance is on the wane. Yes, my bar-study is suffering and now I need to cut back a bit from this site. I’d really like to avoid going on a “hiatus,” so I developed a little plan. The plan is pretty simple. Are you ready? You guys do the work for me!

Seriously! It would be a huge help if any of my 88 site readers would e-mail me a small piece about what they ate for dinner, or what they cooked for lunch, or what they think about Bobby Flay. As a reference, just refer back to my previous posts from the past few months. Keep it light, keep it bright and keep it food-related and get your name in lights!

I’ll make an effort, now and then, to give you all a prompt. I’m going to do that tonight in my next post. But, please, if you feel inspired write something up and e-mail it to me. My e-mail address is on the lower left site of the page. Pictures would be great too.

I hate to be all Sally Struthers on you, but won’t you help a gourmet in need? Think of the children.

    I think that’s a great idea. I would start a food blog myself but it’s challenging enough having two blogs. So thanks for the impetus to write about food. You’ll be hearing all about my culinary exploits…oh yes…you will….

    Tell ya what, I’m doing a food post on Friday, all about the making of the sandwich from the “Make Me a Sandwich” post on my blog (http://republicoft.typepad.com/republic_of_t/2004/06/make_me_a_sandw.html). I’ll email you a copy when I’m done.
