All things considered, I’d prefer Pix’s excuse

Hi!
If you’re like me, you’re wondering, “what happened to Nourish!? I adored that blog, and I wanted to give the authors lots of money and millions of hits a day, but they haven’t updated for two weeks!”
(Okay, that middle part might be wishful thinking.)
And it’s true. We haven’t updated since June 17, which in Internet terms is like not updating since 1984. We do have awfully good reasons, though, I promise. I’ve been moving house and dealing with illness, Pix has been on a much-needed and well-earned vacation, and Anea answers to no man so we really have no idea what she’s been up to even though we keep asking. (This is like the Witch-King of Angmar, so I bet we could get her to talk by getting one of our female friends to ask, but Cadistra won’t help would have helped but we assumed she was too busy with her comic that you all should be reading, and Jezriyah’s been distracted by her new boyfriend.) Also, we prefer to post recipes with pictures, and because of all of this vacationing in Bora Bora and visiting the doctor every third day and answering to no man, we really haven’t done a whole lot of cooking recently, so we haven’t had anything to take pictures of.
Not to worry, though! We’ll be back in action very soon. Here’s a preview:
Isn’t that exciting? I can’t wait!
Until next time,
Your friendly neighborhood Cheferman

*sputter* Wouldn’t help? >=/
…You only needed to ask… o>_>o
Aw! I’ll amend the post to reflect that.
Too much soup, not enough chefs?
Yes, precisely!
And I *sigh* have not reviewed anything yet… I blame it on work. Everything is their fault.
Work is an excellent thing to blame other things on. Blaming work on work, though, is a little circular for my tastes.
boiling water!!! What do you think we are? Chefs??
I know, I wonder sometimes if we expect too much with these recipes. I’ve tried to get Pix and Anea to approve recipes that appeal to a broader audience, but they think that my suggestion of “1. Have or acquire opposable thumbs and English literacy” in every recipe borders on pandering, so I’ve let it go for now.
EJ’s got a good point – we have been pretty busy. For me, it’s not much of an excuse, because I feel like I have a personal responsibility to everyone, and I feel like I haven’t been delivering. It’s probably not as bad as that, but I’ll assume it’s my fault and apologize for it anyway.
I’m looking to bring on another author (perhaps two or three down the road), and hopefully that should help alleviate a little of the backlog. It’ll also add another fresh perspective to our recipes.
I’ve got a recipe coming up that I’ll be adding this week (if I can figure out what the @#%$ to NAME it), and hopefully after that, you guys will see recipes showing up more often.
Thanks for being a part of it all! You guys are the reason we do this!
