Appetizing Muse

In preparation for the rather major update to Food Fare on Thursday, I've revised Garlic Galore to include five new recipes and additional information. I've already uploaded the changes to Garlic Galore for one and all to see. Big deal, aye?

Geek Speak: I was very unhappy with the previous page design of Garlic Galore, which is the main reason I decided to "spiff-up" the piece. For those of you who never saw the article in its former glory, the previous background never looked quite right to me on the page: it seemed to throw off the text. Information in text form is always more important to me than the graphics when dealing with an article. So I did away with the "garlicky" background and added my own colored sort, although I did continue the use of the "Garlic Bar" to separate sections of the article.

Anyway, as I spiffed-up the piece it occurred to me it needed a few more recipes and some information about the health benefits of garlic.

Voila, my garlic redux is now up and running.

Speaking of page design, in the new year the blog entries at Appetizing Muse will change format. Rather than placing all entries for one month on one page in the archives, I'll be making one entry per page beginning in 2010. In other words, each blog entry will have its own page which will make "perma-linking" much easier.

I've used the "process" on my primary blog Irish Eyes for years, where it has worked very well.
