Up and Running...for now

Hi Savvy Sweetians,

Is that what they are calling you these days? Who knows now. So, I am back to restore your good faith in my blogging ability. I am also on Christmas break and with all of this free time on my hands I found it the perfect opportunity to rekindle this flame of ours. So, how have you been?

I guess a reintroduction is on order. Hi, my name is Meaghan. I am an english and creative writing major at Sweet Briar college who enjoys dabbling in a little baking shenanigans. As you can see by previous posts to this blog Savvy Sweets is the remains of a failed homework assignment. 3 years ago I set out to make a consumer report blog for my introduction journalism class. It was all about fun dorm ideas and products. The name Savvy Sweets is evidence of my attempt to be clever. The blog was aimed towards the sweet briar community and said community being made up of mostly women, the name seemed brilliant...ok, maybe not brilliant, but definitely passable. It was all about the grade, people.

But fast forward to today, I find myself with 3 blogs, all of which have been neglected and abused. (RIP: The Inner Turmoils of a Teenage Werewolf, Ichabod's, and the original Savvy Sweets!) You can harass me about those names later. With all of that aside, as mentioned before, I am back now to restore your faith in my succesfuly blogging ability. Hi, mom.

Lucky for me I have come to find that the name Savvy Sweets is actually quite fitting for the blog I am going to attempt to get running. We're going to be heading in a different direction here at the Sweets headquarters. No more dorm product consumer reports, instead we are going to make our way into the kitchen. Savvy Sweets will now focus mainly on kitchen products and recipes, tested and proven to be awesome and at times even useful. Suggestions and ideas are always welcome. If you would like me to focus on a particular item or recipe for one week I will be more then happy to do the dirty work for you before you go out and spend the money. We'll have videos, photos, comments, and critiques posted weekly, so keep coming back and I'll keep doing my best to entertain and enlighten you...you love it!

Without further hesitation, let's keep those sweets savvy, people. Bon appetit!
