What Have I Been Doing?

This is so unlike me - is it not? I mean, you haven't seen a real blog post from me in ages! No laughter - no seriousness - oh my word - what's happening with me. Let's just say that a brotha has been busy over here.

I'm trying to keep up with blog posts - but there are sooo many and you know, there are so little hours in the day. I'm doing the best I can.

So, next week - 7 days from today to be exact - I'm supposed to be launching a website called everydaycookin.com. It's going to be "the everyday site for the everyday cook."

Let me ask you a question...do you think I'm ready? Ha! Hecks no! This is a lotta work - why didn't someone tell me. I've been cooking my arse off - taking food pictures - writing restaurant reviews - and everything else you can think of related to food. So, forgive me if I seem a little out of wack - I'll return to the normal Darius soon...I suppose. In the mean time and in between time - here's a look at what I've been doing.

If I don't have your e-mail address - e-mail me so I can add you to my everydaycookin.com mailing list - darius@everydaycookin.com....okay?!?!?!
