I love reading about the food and life in the Saratoga area and I hope that your cookbook reads like your blog. I just want you to know that I will miss your blog if you choose to end it but best of luck to you in your future endeavors!

I don't quite understand how you are ...Jeannie,<br />I don't quite understand how you are able to fit everything that you do into a single day. It makes me wonder at times if the days in Middle Grove are somehow longer than the 24 hours we get in Wilton! In my heart, I know that you do it all because you cherish it all. The families, friends, weddings, babies, birthdays and beyond...if it is important to 'us', then it becomes important to you. You have been baking cakes for me, my kids and even their unborn babies for over 30 years and we have been friends for closer to 40! Thank you, for all of the love you have shared and showered me with over that period of time. Thanks even more, for continuing to share yourself and your gifts via the Adirondack Baker. I love it...every single entry, but if you need to step away from it, then do it. Follow your joy, wherever it may lead you and know that I'm always in your corner. <br />Love you,<br />Di Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16239527814402800427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-547463582925369801.post-5269858857110762572013-07-14T22:47:44.000-04:002013-07-14T22:47:44.000-04:00Judy, you humble me, seriously.

I love adding posts about my experiences in and around Saratoga, so you can expect to see more of that. I love the feedback and really appreciate it, especially that you're willing to give me some of your nights and weekends!

I enjoy reading about food, but that is not why I subscribed to your blog nor why I continue reading. I went to Skidmore and have a great memories of Saratoga. I like to feel connected to Saratoga and I love when you mention what's going on around the school and town. I think food is great lens for keeping in touch with that community. There are zillions of food blogs out there all with lovely, yummy looking recipes, but I've followed you because of that connection to a community - similar to what you said about why and who you bake for. I wouldn't take my nights and weekends to check in with any old food blog, just like you wouldn't take yours to bake for just anybody. I don't know if this will end up being the right path for your blog or not, but for my two cents, I would love to see it more deeply rooted in Saratoga Springs life. Best of luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-547463582925369801.post-35014190046524452082013-07-14T12:06:11.179-04:002013-07-14T12:06:11.179-04:00Jeanne, post as the opportunity and inspiration pr...Jeanne, post as the opportunity and inspiration provides. I have been asking myself the same questions. I also have a handful of dedicated followers and when I don't post for a few days I feel like I am letting someone down. I have to go back to why I began blogging in the first place. It was to have a venue to share those glass half full thoughts with others. Now is not a good time to make a decision about something you obviously love. It's summer and life is running at full speed outside. Give yourself a break and simply back up a few steps. By Traver's Day you may be ready for another furlong. I vote, BLOG ON!

Look at all you have accomplished and the positive feedback you receive. You have achieved a level (perhaps not in the blogosphere) but in your world of friends and family that others admire and respect. “Write on!”<br /><br />J Kennedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17465643955542195628noreply@blogger.com
