It's all about the details. In this case, the details of posting to my main site rather than this one. Nothing more than out of convenience, personal preference and style, lack of time and interest, and lack of commitment to the this site. Ok, I guess it is quite obvious. I admit, I do put just about 100% of my energies into the main site; <a href="http://www.cuisinierskitchen.blogspot.com/">www.cuisinierskitchen.blogspot.com</a>. No mystery or hidden secret. It is where I put all of the current information, thoughts, insight, commentary, dialogue, perspective and most importantly...the food on just about all that I do. It is just more of my favorite place to write and express. I started this site about the same time in 2005, merely to start a photo gallery, but the more I found cool photos that I wanted to post, I thought to myself hey, these are way cool and they would look great on the main blog site. So, many photos and thoughts inadvertently made their way to the silver screen of webdom by taking a detour to cuisinierskitchen and not the digitalkitchen. But, every now and again, I find those certain shots that I want to post here, and in most cases, they end up on collectively on the cuisinierskitchen site. No worries right?!? Not all the same readers...not all the same audience...not all the same shit! Hope to see you again before too long... </div>

A little post to my poor neglected site...like a lonely orphan cast out for not being the chosen one, or the younger sibling who just doesn't get the attention in favor of the older one...this is just a little shot of sunshine and fun for this wonderful summertime in the NW...bottom line~ Get Inspired with what's around you. <br />
