Until I turned fifteen, I had never experienced moving vans or packing cartons. I never endured acclimating to a scary, new elementary school where I wouldn't have anyone to sit with at lunch. Growing up, my family didn't move very often. We lived in one house from the time I was four years old until high school when we relocated to a larger house about five minutes down the road.
Since college, however, I've bounced around between a few different apartments, scouring Craig's List and trading furniture with my parents' basement. Whenever I've move to a new place, be it my family home, dorm room or a new apartment , I don't waste any time at filling shelves, hanging pictures and organizing closets. I like to get the packing and unpacking done and over with as fast as possible – even if it means back-to-back twenty hour days leading up to or following moving day.
When you're moving, it seems that no matter how well you've planned ahead, listed and labeled, organized and sorted, there will always be last minute fires that you need to put out.
It turns out that moving a blog is no different.

Thanks for the email alerting me to your change of blog address (I’ve updated my blogroll too). I can’t tell you how much I love the new look of your site—it’s attractive & approachable, with a touch of culinary femininity, and I hope your new (blog) home brings you lots of wonderful adventures!

also, now knowing that you write at more than two other places AND a have full-time job…how do you have an active social life? I’m in awe.
Maris, love the new look! So obvious that you put a lot of thought and work into it. Also enjoyed your Culinate piece. Front page – very, very well done!
Marvelous work. I will dispose of any leftovers.
