Well Preserved

With a year of experience under our belts we are looking at the year ahead and nefariously plotting where we are going to journey with the blog into next year.  Here are some of the ideas – and we are open to receiving your feedback and ideas.  Some of these ideas are locked in stone, others negotiable:

• Series will continue.  There will be plenty of posts outside of the realms of these series but we will endeavor to put some themes and series together to dig deeper into topics we are passionate about.
• Guest posts will commence.  We will find a way to feature people we adore around food.  Some will be professionals and others be passionate food-loving people.
• More use of media.  We will use technology is more ways than simply typing information.  There are a few things that are easier to show in video than text (like how to use a pressure cooker or test a jam for set).  We will get some tutorials to help explain these things in more detail.
• New journeys and experiments.  Santa brought a food dehydrator this Christmas and I also have a real itch to make my own beer.  Making cheese and charcuterie also sound like fun.
• Events and possibly workshops.  We have secured a space which we can use for such things and want to get people of different mindsets together to share – and it would be a lot of fun to meet some familiar names here.  A swap is definitely in the making and some other events will come our way.
• More preserving, including the Tigress Jam-a-long challenge.  No goals are set this year – yet.  I imagine the goal will less than the 50 batches we aimed for last year (finishing with 52).

As mentioned above, we would love your feedback, ideas and suggestions for us next year.
