Yawn!

Have I been asleep for so long?  It has been a long time, actually three months, since I have posted. Almost feels as if  I was asleep.  Yes, it has been that long.  Some of you may have felt that I have forsaken Trini cooking all together.  But, most of you, by now, would know that when I am not posting it does not mean that I am not working.  As you've seen, I've moved simplytrinicooking.com to a new home and given the site  a new design  as well…….

But, what really happened in the other two months after moving?  Well, I am happy to say that those two months were spent working diligently to make you all even happier. A lot of my fans and well wishers were asking me about printables, so I had to work on making the recipes into a printable form.  While doing that, I got another idea and went with it.  And now the recipes could be printed off  my Online Trini Cooking Community website, simplytrinicooking.org.

At this new site you will get the printables complete with nutrition information such as total fat, calories, protein, carbohydrate, sodium, etc.  Recipes are more comprehensive,  so you can search for them either by ingredient, recipe type, course, skill level, tags or the regular search button.  Recipes can also be rated and you can leave comments for each of the over 350+ recipes.

We've added a new section called Kitchen Makeover Tips, ideally for the DIY person in mind.  So if you are looking for new ideas for designing your kitchen, for renovating your kitchen, or general knowledge on designing your kitchen, you will find it all there.  This section will be updated on a regular basis, so look out for more articles.

Finally, in keeping with my vision in forming an Online Trini Cooking Community, I've added a social networking capability to the site. Users can sign up and become a member of the Community.  You can share recipes; meet Trini cooking enthusiasts and foodies from all over the world… and… Too much to mention; just check it out your self.  So, I invite you all to visit and join. Let's make this a large and successful Online Trini Cooking Community……
