I love learning

So, I'm building a web site for my Venison Cookbook and am learning the Joomla content management system in the process. I am having a blast! It has been very time consuming, and I've only learned a tiny bit of what is out there to know. But it's made me realize how much I like learning new things. Every time I get an extension to work I just want to dance around the house. (The recipe feature, for example. I'm still figuring it out, but how cool is it?).

My point is, go out there and learn something today. It will make you feel so alive!

Feeling Inspired

I saw "Julie and Julia" the other night. What a wonderful, wonderful movie. I think everyone should see it. It's such a great tale of seizing life...making lemonade out of your lemons (or venison burgers out of your venison). I came out of that movie feeling very energized about my venison cookbook, or cooking web site rather. So, now I'm busily at work making that a reality. It's will be a work in progress for a long time, but I'm hoping to have something launched by early October. I have a lot to learn, but I'm excited about it!

I really, really need recipes...I want this to be a good resource. So, if you're out there in the blogsphere and have a great venison recipe, send it to me!

Love my new mac!

I'm typing this from the keyboard of my beautiful new MacBook Pro. Yep, I've officially made the switch (well, I'm in process...it's going to take a few days to get all essentials off my PC and onto this). I've been working from two computers for years and I finally decided that's a pain. Actually, both old computers are, well, old and tired. They kind of decided this for me.

Wish me luck with the migration. Some stuff is going smoothly, and some isn't. I'm hoping the software that makes it possible to run Windows programs on Mac really works. That will save me so much time and money!
