Okay, so listen. You don’t have to follow this blog. There are, what, 900 thousand other food blogs out there? But if you’re wondering why this one exists, read on…

I am a collector. I am an organizer. I love technology. Put those three together and what do you get? A web-based personalized recipe box, of course!

I’m also nostalgic and perhaps a little too dreamy. I imagine what it would be like to read my mom’s or my grandmother’s or even my great-grandmother’s archives of her kitchen experiences, and I just think that’d be so neat!! Will my offspring read this one day? Who knows, but let me be weird and daydream about it…

So here we are. Years after the DK was created. No more fluff. No more pressure. Just plain ole “lookie, lookie, check out this recipe!” All archives are deleted (you say, what?!). 100s of comments gone. This is truly a fresh start.

I can’t guarantee any regularity of posts. I can’t guarantee you’ll like my pictures (or the recipes for that matter). But I will still be here, having fun collecting, organizing and writing my gastronomical story.

On that note, let me introduce myself. I’m Sydney Drinkwater. My husband and I currently live in Ecuador with our baby boy.
Do YOU have a cool last name, too? Where do YOU live?
