My friend Fabi from Not Just Baked sent me an email explaining the Writing Process Blog Tour and asked if I would like to join. I met Fabi at a Sabra party in Miami for BlogHer Food. We hit it off right away and the good food, atmosphere and wine helped kicked off the night.
Here are the questions that were sent my way…..
1) What am I working on?
I wish I could say just one thing but I have multiple sponsored posts lined up and just regular recipes. I’m a brand ambassador for Pompeian and International Delight so those monthly posts keep me pretty busy. There is also a California cheese company that is interested in recipe development for farmers market ideas. I’m also a monthly contributor for SheKnows and I have a blast coming up with off the wall recipes.
This next week my husband and I are taking off for a little getaway hosted by the Four Seasons in Santa Fe so stay tuned for that fun post. I seriously can’t wait to get away for a couple of days.
2) How does my work differ from others of its genre?
Wow this is a hard question. It really depends on my ingredients and the type of cuisine that I’m cooking or baking on whether it differs. In the recipe world you are going to see a lot of similar recipes out there but someone might put a different spin on it and that is always fun. I try to create recipes based on what I think my family will eat so we don’t waste food.
3) Why do I write what I do?
I love food! I grew up loving to cook in my parents kitchen and I even would pretend that I had a restaurant. It’s nice to come up with recipes and be able to share them with family, friends and of course my readers. The nice comments that people leave really keeps me going.
4) How does your writing process work?
To be honest I’ve never really considered myself to be a great writer but I love food and love creating recipes. My writing process is definitely a “work in progress.” It’s all about tying the story with the recipe and making the readers want to come back for more. I try really hard to write in the morning but usually I’m writing right before I go to bed so I’m exhausted. My husband is always telling me that I get distracted easily because I will start writing and then I venture off to pinterest or Facebook. I’m seriously trying to get better to close out all the tabs so I can concentrate on my writing.
I’m also a huge fan of sticky notes and note pads. When I think of an idea or story I’m quick to jot it down so I remember it for later.
Now on to Behind the Scenes
LOVE those behind the scenes photos. Now that I’m out of my tiny apartment and into a house, I can’t wait to set up some photo spots. Also, I feel like I’m similar to you.. I need to work more in the morning, but find myself doing it at night. Last night I wrote something about juggling lots of projects, and somehow I ended up writing that I juggle lots of vacuums. Because I was half asleep…
I am loving these posts. I need to get back in to better blogging. I feel like after 4 years things are just kind of blah for me. And now, having Logan I don’t have the time to cook up all kinds of stuff or focus on taking pictures. But, posts like me show me that I can totally continue doing what I love!
This is great, thanks for sharing the behind the scenes. This gives visitors to see what is required to make those luscious photo’s and tasty recipes.
Love this! It’s always so fun to take a peek behind the scenes of other bloggers’ lives. 🙂 I totally am with you on the distractions of Pinterest while I’m writing… it’s so hard not to look!
I’m so happy for you and all you have going on (I also might be an eeensy bit jealous :P) as always your food photography set ups are amazing!
Business storytelling is a marketing strategy that uses stories to create an emotional connection between a business and its customers. It is often used in marketing campaigns, advertising, and other forms of communication.

It can also be used to explain complex products and services, build relationships with customers, and create an emotional connection that leads to long-term loyalty. Business storytelling is an effective way to communicate a message, engage customers, and build trust.
