Today I reinstalled WordPress and managed to erase my entire blog in the process. Whoops.

For the first half hour, I totally panicked. All of my hard work! Years of entries!

Then I got a tiny bit of perspective and remembered that this is just the latest incarnation of a web presence that has spanned fourteen years; that I had willingly and intentionally deleted entire websites at the touch of button a dozen times before; that pressing the reset button is a good thing for us creative types.

Then I immediately went over to Google and used the cache to rescue all of my recipes. I will be posting those back up here as individual entries over the course of the next couple of days so that you can have them. Thanks for your patience during this time!
