Public Service Announcement: This is Not a Recipe

This looks delicious, no?

And it kind of was.

There were sugared nectarines, fried in butter and hinting of lemon zest. There was a cobbler/crisp base. There was butter.

(Butter needs no adjectives. Its perfection is known far and wide.)

It was fresh and unique and quite beautiful.

I took pictures, wrote down the recipe as I concocted it, and rubbed my palms together with glee as I envisioned putting it here on my site to joyously share with the world at large.

Unfortunately, even though it was definitely edible and parts of it were completely delicious, the dish as a whole just didn't quite come together for me. Not enough to make it 'blogworthy'. It needs a little tweaking.

I haven't been much good at posting recipes here lately.

(The last recipe I posted was 'Veggie Pizza'. Really? Yes, it's good and it's definitely blogworthy. But is veggie pizza my final cooking contribution to the world? I think not.)

It's not because I haven't been cooking. Oh I've been cooking. I've been cooking like nobody's bizness. But I have some standards when it comes to recipes that I post on my blog: They need to be really, really good.

Especially when they're a little more labor-intensive.

Well, at least I have to feel that they are really, really good.

Whether or not everyone likes them is subjective. But there's not much I can do about that.

Sooooo... If you don't see many recipes around here, it's because of one of two reasons...

a) I haven't made anything that I feel is truly blogworthy.

b) I have made something that is blogworthy but don't have enough time to post it.

That's just the God's honest truth.

But when I do make something that is blogworthy AND I have time to post it, guess what!?!

I will.
