I Get to Play Food Critic!
As some of you may know, almost two years ago I came up with an idea to get a bunch of friends together and and go to new or interesting restaurants - we're called "The Culinarily Adventurous Girls" (no "culinarily" isn't a word - just go with me on this). Since then we've been going to a different restaurant every month and have had some wonderful food and a lot of fun.
After each meal, in the e-mail message announcing the next date and restaurant selection, I would write a briefish review about the restaurant and what we ate and how we liked it. That eventually evolved into creating a web site for us which is currently a work in progress (once it's ready I'll let everyone know) and I also began sending the reviews to a couple of local food blogs.
Well, yesterday, the owner of my favorite of those food blogs Foodtastic invited me to be a Contributor! YAY me! If you click on the link, you'll see my latest review and my name listed as a Contributor. I'm so excited I can't stand it!
Maybe I'll grow up to be a professional food critic! Let's see you need to enjoy food - check; be brave about trying new and unusual foods - check; like to express your opinions - check (DUH!) ; and write semi-coherently - check!
Ah well...a girl can dream...:)

That's pretty exciting!!
Maybe we'll get to see you as a mystery blogger guest on the next edition of Top Chef! (I guess they'd have to be in Miami again, but still - they had a blogger critic on this past season, why not!)
Congratulations and I can't wait to read your reviews!
This really is exciting news! I think you'd be fabulous as a food critic!
You, my friend, are a very talented writer. This is awesome! I am very happy for you.
Congrats.
btw - I work 15 feet from this woman and I have to go to her blog to find out this stuff. Geesh.
Fame! You're gonna live forever! You're gonna learn how to fly (high!)
It's my pleasure to have you join us - welcome!!
