So with baby #1, I dropped off this page for 18 months. With baby #2 it was nearly 8. I guess this is an improvement? This time, in addition to coming back to writing about how I cook with even less time than I had with one kiddo, I also am adjusting to a new gluten-free diet. After struggling with tummy troubles since I had my gall bladder removed 5 years ago, I did some reading on celiac and gluten intolerance and recognized myself in the list of symptoms of a gluten intolerance. Six weeks and counting, and I’ve never felt better.
As I’ve been thinking about starting up this blog again, I wondered if I should start from scratch and start under a new handle. But when I think back to when I came up with Savoir Flair, it was because I liked the idea of knowing just what to do in any situation. While I might not be throwing smart cocktail parties as often as I once did (confession: I didn’t do it all that often), I do still care deeply “about what tastes good, what makes me feel good, and what makes the people I love happy and healthy.” So I’m sticking with it.
