Kareem’s girlfriend (dude, are you two ever going to get married?) recently started her very own food blog called, appropriately, Geneve’s Kitchen. If the photos don’t make you hungry, the recipes and ideas will.

I love the use of photos on her site, by the way. There’s a professional quality to them, and it just makes the whole look of the blog a lot better. Good luck, Geneve and great work so far.

And, a random note… I found Kareem’s post about her blog on Technorati, of all things, as I clicked through the “food” tag on the restaurant review below. Kind of random, and a demonstration of why I always try to tag my posts. Never know what you’ll find.

PS. Those of you who just read and don’t write at a blog, set one up! It’s such a good way to keep in touch and share things you’re passionate about. If you do it for yourself, and not for the audience, it’ll be worth it. If you’re always writing around a particular topic and a decent writer, you might even be able to build a significant audience.

Almost at the bottom of a box of Trader Joes Chocolate Covered Soy Nuts. Man, I miss having them around.

Following up on my previous item, Connecticut passed the law mandating a minimum recess period for elementary school students and eliminating the sale of junk food. The governor is considering vetoing the bill, but lawmakers seem confident that the bill will pass.

My only concern is that there’s going to be some sort of master list of “OK” food… it will be interesting to see what makes it on the list.
