Big Changes Coming to The Friendly Kitchen
Hello, hello, Everyone!
I just wanted to take a quick moment to let you all know about some upcoming changes to my life, and inevitably, to the blog.
Recently, just in time for my 10 year high school reunion, I reconnected with my high school sweetheart after losing contact for nearly 8 years. It basically took no time at all for us to realize that that old spark was still there. So, in just a matter of months, I will be marrying a soldier and moving my entire life to Germany – yes, even the kitties!
So, what does this mean for the blog, you ask?
We will be stationed ‘Near the French Border, but Still the Middle of Nowhere’, Germany for about 3 years, and in that time, I plan to write about my experiences, my travels, the local cuisine, and how to maintain a friendly kitchen, even while abroad. My career as a private chef will be on hold for a while, but never fear. I will be working to finish my degree in nutrition, so when I come back to the ol’ career, I will be better than ever!
Also, I’m planning to do my best to find some staging gigs in local restaurants to keep my cookin’ chops up to speed. Maybe, if I’m lucky, I’ll even find a part time gig working on a farm or two in the area. With this incredible adventure before me, I will still have lots of recipes to share, so I definitely won’t neglect that piece of the blog-y puzzle.
In the meantime, I’ll be doing a little tidying up around the site, posting a few things here and there, and getting The Friendly Kitchen all ready for it’s big move across the ocean – oh yeah, and I’ll be planning a wedding. Sheesh.
Here’s to New Beginnings!
