Welcome!

Welcome, welcome!

What do you think? The new digs are neat, huh?

It wasn’t long after I picked up my blog last fall that I realized I’d need to make a move over to WordPress at some point. Luckily, the awesome Andy of Box 31 web design came to my rescue. I owe him a huge, huge thank you for making this new site a reality!

And enormous thanks to the lovely and talented Sebastian Rasch and Viktoria Panik for lending their photography skills so you can see me over there on the right, smiling in my dear Dublin!

My favorite thing about the new site other than the pretty look? You should have absolutely zero complications when you go to comment on a post! So talk to me – you’ve got no excuses now!

I’ve got lovely new sponsors, and I’ll give them each a proper introduction in the near future. And check out the other pages – so fancy!

I’ve got lots of plans for this site in the coming months, but there may be kinks I have yet to work out. If you see anything that’s a little wonky, don’t hesitate to let me know.  But most of all, make yourself at home, bring your friends, and spread the word!

And check back right over here tomorrow for a long overdue giveaway from one of our new sponsors! It’s a little Irish, and a lot cute!

    Looks great, Em! I will be a faithful commenter, though more likely about trips to Brussels than cooking. I’m a better eater than a cooker.

      I bet you’d be a better baker than you think!

    Congratulations, Emily. It looks great! I will be watching as you expand the site, but you’re off to a good start. Looks very sophisticated, in a warm, homey way.

      Ha! I love when you Irish people say swit swoo! I’ll admit, I’ve adopted it 🙂

    Emily, I’m one of your Aunt Mary Catherine’s friends. She has bragged about you for years. Looking through “From China Village” I really understand why ;-).
    Well done and well written. I’ll be checking back often and I may take you up on your offer of helping with planning a visit to Dublin next time I’m there.
