Recommitting and Picadillo Photo-blogging!

Blog updates have really trailed off on the site and for that, both Frank and I are very sorry. Things have been busy and all things Washington depress us lately, but we are recommitting to this blog! More Foodventures await! I even have some photos of various adventures over the past month or so that I’ve forgotten to post, so there may be some Foodventure posts from the vault. Get excited.

In the meantime, my friend Karen seems to be taking up the banner of food-blogging–and doing it quite well. I am embarrassed to admit that I didn’t know what picadillo was before I saw her post, but I’m excited to give it a try sometime after reading her post and seeing her pictures. She and I are also looking around for a food photography class, so stay tuned for the details on that.

Has anyone ever taken a food photography course? Any recommendations for class locations or other resources?

TheFoodventure.com Hits the Road Again

I just posted some thoughts on the Italian food I ate in Chicago last week. Tomorrow, Frank and I are meeting some friends in Philadelphia for the day. I don’t know where we’re going to have lunch yet, but we’re definitely open to suggestions. Dinner, however, is non-negotiable; in fact, eating at Villa di Roma is about 75 percent of the reason we’re driving 2.5 hours each way to Philly in the first place. (I hope our friends are not offended by that comment. I suspect that they would agree and thus will let it pass.)

Stay tuned for a post on Sunday about our Philly Foodventure. If you have any suggestions for a great lunch spot (remembering that we can’t hit a cheesesteak-only spot because of Lent, sigh), please post a comment below.
