sniffle
So, I'm not sure how long iVillage will keep this URL going after I've flown the coop, but seeing as this is my last day, do consider this my final, sniffly sign-off — from here. But, first I wanted to first thank Eileen and Josey and all the kind folks at iVillage again for being so hospitable this year.
I realized this morning that this is actually my fourth domain move since I launched this site in August 2003 at smitten.typepad.com. (Seriously? If you've been around from the beginning, you deserve a cookie. No, really. Email me.) From there it was thesmitten.com (November 2004), thesmitten.ivillage.com here (September 2005) and now into the smittenkitchen.com (September 2006) I go! Ironically, I've also moved apartments almost as many times in the same span, but I mean it this time, I'm not going anywhere again any time soon.
As I mentioned last week, I'll eventually reinstate these archives on TheSmitten.com, but my day-to-day writing will be at SmittenKitchen.com. I hope to see you all there.

Good luck at your new domain. Sounds like how many times I have moved physically in my lifetime! Can't wait to read more.

I'm finding it hard to believe a year has passed so quickly! That's just crazy. What isn't crazy is the move to a domain where you feel the urge to write and are excited by the prospect again. That's fantastic.

I've been with you since the typepad days, however not from the very very beginning. I think I started reading around the time you met Alex, and it's been delightful reading about your life. Looking forward to keeping up with you over at the kitchen.

I can't believe it's been 3 years. You started the typepad blog about a month before I did and I've been reading ever since. Man, time does fly.
Um...oatmeal raisin would be good. :)
Off to read the kitchen.

Congratulations on the move! I've been reading along since typepad, 4 or 5 months before you launched thesmitten.com. I wonder if future food blog entries will make me cry the way some of your other posts have done in the past...
*must remember to update favorites*

The move is official. I'm a Smittenkitchen fan already!

I guess the days of "Tracy and Hepburn" are gone. ;-)

We'll miss you over here...but best of luck with the new blog!

Congrats on the new site! BTW you may want to change the email address as its going to get harvested by spammers in its current form... Just a thought!

Good-bye to this site and hello to your new one! I'll follow you, your witt and your recipes anywhere!

I thought that it was "Statler and Waldorf"!

You started blogging about 6 months after I did. I've been reading you since typepad - and I'll keep reading you at the kitchen!

Cookies?
17 | Dan | September 17, 2006 07:50 PM
Does it count if I read all your entries after I found you here? I could use some cookies right now.
