From January 2008 to July 2010, I maintained a blog about my various gastronomic adventures.  From a semi-regular bread project where I tried my hand at making pitas, pull-aparts, and pretzels to my quest for the perfect sandwich to my professions of undying devotion to Daniel Boulud, this was a record of my inestimable obsession with comestibles.
