eat. live. travel. write. is TEN this month (plus an announcement!)

May is a month of celebration in the eat. live. travel. write. household. First of all, it’s my birthday but it’s also the month I launched this blog – TEN YEARS AGO! Can you even believe it? On the one hand, it seems like just yesterday I was hitting publish on my very first post but looking back at everything that’s happened in between, it feels like I must have needed much more than a decade to fit all that in!

(what better way to celebrate than with champagne cupcakes?)

So, May 15th (the “anniversary date”) is a big day this year – I’ll be posting some highlights from the last ten years right here but also…

I’m launching a newsletter!

That’s right, I might be late to the game but I’ve been thinking about a lot of things blogging-related recently and this is something I have wanted to do for a long time. So, on May 15th, I’ll be hitting “publish” on my first newsletter – a monthly(ish) collection of stories, recipes, links and info about “all sorts” of things (look at my blog header – get it?!). In fact when I first started writing my blog, my tagline was “a blog about all sorts of things” as a nod to my sweet header and my love for all sorts (but also because I didn’t ant to narrow my niche down too much) so I feel like I’m going back to “old style blogging” as I launch this new phase of my writing!
