In love with paper + change is a-comin'


To my dear and patient readers...

In case you haven’t noticed, I haven’t written a new post since May of this year.

My sweet mother informed me last week that she is tired of “The Perfect Pancake, Edited.” She keeps asking when I will have a new post published. (Her question reminds me of one of my favorite parts of the movie “Julie and Julia” when her mother tells her “I think I’m your only reader.”)

Mom, thank you for always supporting me and being a faithful reader.

I also want to thank my lovely friend Kirsten, who lives in Atlanta, Georgia. She is always so generous in her compliments about my blog thoughts – and deserves a royal shout-out.

When school let out for the summer, the little personal time I had was spent on a few freelance projects. And, since July, I’ve been taking some time off from social media altogether. (Gasp – I know! This is especially ironic since I took an amazing social media marketing course from Media Bistro this summer.)

We vacationed in Oregon for two weeks in July – and this trip was the perfect excuse to completely unplug. Only I haven't full-heartedly plugged back in yet.

The strange thing about unplugging from Twitter (my favorite social media tool), reading blogs around the clock and frequently listening to podcasts is that my mind has rested a bit. I’ve also rekindled my romance – or obsession – with paper. I’ve been able to slow down, enjoy much more presence with my family, gain some clarity. And, I have decided to refocus my content on Chocolate, Paper and Scissors for you, my readers.

Re-launch plans coming soon.

Thank you for all of your support!
