I've been reading all these blogs that have a purpose. Some sort of angle. Food blogs tend to have the best angles. Like Gourmet Project: some guy decided to cook every single recipe in the Gourmet cookbook (and he discovered other ppl doing the same). Or, Not Eating Out in New York: a fellow Brooklynite who now refuses to eat in restaurants in NYC. The Greenmarket Report is great (I got 3 bunches of ramps today! And focaccia from Bread Alone. MMMMM). Last Night's Dinner is an inspiration.
I, however, am sans angle.
I talk about food, and wine, and Auden, and music (did I mention we have My Bloody Valentine tix?? :D :D) and Brooklyn, and sometimes I pontificate on the meaning of life. But, I lack focus. I lack a solid direction. Do I need one? Can I skimp by as just some random chick who talks about random crap? No one necessarily reads this, and in a way, I'm just taking up space in the interwebbed world. Maybe the focus needs to begin within, and then it will filter down to ze blog. Ooo. Deep.

creativity is random. Magic is too.
Hey - thanks for the link and the shoutout :) As for "having a point", I have another blog on LJ where I just ramble.
Not every blog has to have a point :) It should be whatever you want it to be - for what you NEED it to be. As for GreenMarketReport - we started it because we're there every day and I kept getting emails from my friends asking me what was new or if the Ronnybrook guys had arrived yet, or what! It just seemed easier to post it! :)
Focus? What's that?! Don't ask me, I only have 2 blogs plus an Etsy site, plus a facebook page, 9 million projects, etc. etc. etc.
