A Change

After a period of introspection and deliberation, I've decided it's best to let my readers know that this blogger will be undergoing a substantial change. Instead of writing about food, I've decided to write about my pet cat and my substantial collection of stamps.

OK, that's just not true. I don't even have a pet cat. Actually, the big change has to do with location. Tommorrow I leave, laptop in tow, to my temporary home: a tiny dorm overlooking the hip little town of Ithaca, NY. 

What does this mean for Minor Gourmandry? 1) With less fodder comes less material, and with less material comes less posts. The day I start writing about dorm food...well it'll be one heck of a bad day. 2) Besides having less material to write about, I'll have less time (and money) to dedicate to being the Minor Gourmand. For that you can thank Cornell University.

Despite this change, I'll still retain my humble title. I will continue to fill out my photo albums (upper right), and by golly, if any great event of degustation ever occurs around Ithaca, you, reader, will be the first to know about it!

Here's a picture for old times' sake.

I'm new to your blog (and really the whole food blog community!), and I've loved reading your blog and looking at all the delicious-looking baked goods ;). I don't know if you've visited Ithaca before, but it's a great town...sooo beautiful. I recommend the Ithaca Bakery (great sandwiches and pastries) and Moosewood restaurant (you've probably seen the cookbooks). My family goes to a cabin by Colgate University every summer and we've been going on daytrips to Taughannock Falls State Park (outside of Ithaca) since I was little, so I recommend that too, especially in Spring/Summer. Good luck and keep us informed!

Hey Andy,

Thanks for the comments- if I moved away from Philly, I would miss R5 too. In fact, they're probably like 40% of the reason I moved back to PA from VA. Kind of weird, but it's been worth it.

I think you mean degustation, not gestation. I great feat of gestation would be giving birth to octuplets.
