2009! Dunno what all the fuss is all about…. it’s here, and today seems no different to yesterday! Well, ok… i’m not at work, but whatever!
So with my new years resolutions outlined, I think I want to bring about some change to the blog as well in 2009. I think I want to start off with the layout; as simplistic as it is (which I love!) I think a little bit of colour wouldn’t be amiss! I also want design a banner, so watch out for those changes in the near future! I have also been contemplating moving over to wordpress.org, but i’m still weighing up the pros and cons… lets see! 
A bunch of other changes which I have already made include removing the blogging challenge and the movies pages. I don’t think I got much traffic there, so they have been archived for now. I have brought in a books that I am reading/have read in 2009 page. Hopefully this will grow and be more interesting as the year goes on.
I have also cleaned up my blogroll, so most of the blogs which I avidly read and follow should now appear in this list. It was also a good opportunity to cull some blogs from my Google reader. This list is now down to 46 instead of soemthing like 70+. For whatever reason I was followign a lot of blogs which blogged about their life…. which revolved around following the latest tv shows etc… not quite sure why I stared following them in the first place!
Finally, I was inspired to put my ‘chef‘ hat on once again by this post from minus 1 Thousand (who is the Digital Niqabi really), and reproduced this oh so delicious chocolate pie! It actually is not very sweet at all, and the 2 pies have disappeared in less than 24 hours! Check out her recipe, try it because it was fun and very easy to make…. and enjoy!
(Ofcourse, you can’t talk about pie and forget Weebl and Bob)
This is what one of my pies looked like….

That pie looks gooooooood! I’ll give it a go sometime when I am in the mood for making pastry (not my fave thing to make and you can’t buy ready made shells here in Saudi).

Nice to see that you made it, and that it turned out! I’m so happy…I always get nervous about putting up recipes because everyone has a different experience with the same thing. Good job!
