Firstly - sorry if I didn't reply to posts made Wednesday - I did read all of them, but there were just so many.

So, my date day with my hubby didn't go exactly as planned.  Instead of dinner & movie Wednesday - we both drove down to Corpus (in separate vehicles).  Family matters (no drama - just stuff that needed to be done).  While there we worked on decluttering stuff in the carport and had a nice walk on the beach. 

On my way down I listened to a Splendid Table podcast segment which covered an Austrian wine called Gruner Veltliner.  Normally I don't get too excited about wine, but this segment really got me going.  I asked Marcel about it when I saw him, and he was familiar with it.  It's not something found at HEB or your local liquor store, so I'm going to make a scouting trip to SA this weekend to find some (if I get my chores done first). 

Part of our decluttering involved large rubbermaid storage containers filled to the brim with magazines.  Some National Geographic - but mostly food mags (Gourmet, Food & Wine, Bon Appetit, Saveur, R&I, etc.etc.).  I probably didn't help the decluttering effort by insisting the food magaines (all of them - 3 laundry baskets FULL) come home with me.  I am going to challenge myself to do one recipe from each magazine then clip any good recipes/articles and post them in my insane journal food clippings blog.

Nothing creative on this one. I had binders and binders filled with clippings of recipes, articles, food porn, and home ideas. I scanned them all and posted them in my photo bucket and blogged them HERE (http://jzero.insanejournal.com/). Now I'm just adding as I go (clippings and outstanding things I find on other food blogs - and now I have tons (literally) to work add as well with these new magazines.

I am going to start a new food blog soon which I will blog stuff I actually do and the recipes I make from the magazines. I hope my husband will help me on it.

I hope you both get your dinner & a movie.
And I always enjoy your food posts. I can't wait.
