Cooking and the CFRE

If you've read back far enough in this blog, you know that I go through obsessions. For the past few months, I've been obsessed with cooking, and with not cooking. (I'll explain in a minute.)

I have cookbooks upon cookbooks, most of them vegetarian. Recently I became interested in the raw food diet, so I invested in a dehydrator. I haven't had much time to play with it, but I have figured out that fruit leather rocks, and flax-based raw bread is disgusting.

Awhile back I started another blog called Big Mom's Crazy Kitchen, but true to form, I've sort of let it lapse too. I want to revitalize it one of these days. I'd like to get a better camera and become a better photographer, because I just love food photography, almost as much as I love the food itself.

I've also been obsessed with work, thinking about work, and thinking about my qualifications as a fundraiser. Tomorrow I am taking the CFRE exam, and I'm appropriately shitted up. I've been in the business for almost 15 years, and I've done a lot of preparing for the exam, but I'm still nervous. I know of many smart people in the industry who have failed the exam.

I'll post an update after tomorrow.

I want to blog here more often, and I want to include pictures. This has become a real yawner of a blog.

It's every example of how not to blog.

1. Post frequently.
2. Post content of interest and relevance to your readers.
3. Don't apologize for not posting. Just get on with posting.

I have so many blog violations! I should go to jail.
