A post that requires feedback :-)

Hey my friends.

I know - it's 2 posts in one day.

This is major.

:-)

I have been thinking about all the fun recipes that I enjoy sharing so much on here and on facebook and I am realizing that the way I have it set up with the labels - it's gonna get tricky eventually. As I add more and more recipes, you are going to hate me having to search for my peanut butter chocolate chip cookies and having to pass 12 meat recipes, a granola one and 16 crockpot dishes to find it.

Know what I'm sayin?

I'm considering starting a separate recipe blog since I have gotten great feedback in the past. I love to cook and I actually really enjoy trying things and sharing them and then hearing that you all tried them and enjoyed them too.

I'm just slightly social in that way.

Here's where you come in. Would you read a separate recipe blog? Do you like it typically when people have these? Would you enjoy it more than the way I do it now? Or, would you rather me just keep the recipes sprinkled in throughout my posts and add them here and there?

Let me know what you think. I'm sending a call out to all my blog stalkers and faithful commenters alike. Please pull yourself out of the darkness and share with me. I would love your thoughts.

Nighty-night.

Okay, first of all, I am logging on my way out the door to the store so I can grab your new turkey meatball recipe. Without your recipes, my family may not eat. :) So keep it up.

What if you have a separate blog (yes, I will read) but link it here into posts? Right now, you mention your dishes as a part of your family story and often link to the recipe. You could do the same but link to your other blog from time to time.

Either way, keep em coming! And for the record, our faves: meatballs with liquid smoke, smores muffins, black bean soup thingy.

I would go to a seperate blog for recipes. Sounds good.

I may be in the minority, I do like them sprinkled in your current blog. But I would occasionally click over to another blog in search of something yummy.
How is the bed coming?

Kara said...

Nina - Thanks for all the input. That's perfect.

Jamie - Thanks girl.

Shauna - Thanks for the note. The bed is coming along great. David has cut the big "peaked" playhouse front out today and his dad is helping him right now with the cutouts for the windows. Tonight is trim and hopefully tomorrow is painting. :-) LG is outside playing in the sawdust right now. :-)

Kara,

I have tried many of your recipes. But, usually, if I want to try it, I write it down right away. But if there was a link to your other blog, I would probably check it once in a while. I agree with Shauna, though - I like it interspersed in your stories :)

I logged in just to respond to your post.. you should be proud of me...lol! A seperate recipe blog would be great! Love your recipes and your blog.

I love reading about your recipes and have tried quite a few. I tried to find one the other day (the chicken crock pot one) and it took me a few tries to find it, so it would be nice to have one site to go to. Or maybe just a list on the side of your blog that would be easy to access.

I like seperate recipe blogs that I can go to and just look for recipes.

Beth K said...

I agree with Jenn. I've made quite a few of your recipes, but whenever I go back to find one, I feel like I look forever- maybe my fault for not bookmarking more often :) But I LOVE recipe blogs, so I would definitely be checking yours often!
