If you’re a regular visitor you’ve probably already noticed that I’ve shaken the look of the place up a bit again. There shouldn’t be any surprise in that, since I’d already said I was compelled to do so in an earlier post.
As usual, I waxed impatient and just had to get this template up today, so expect to see some shifting around of topics, menus and a bit of functionality here and there over the next few days. (I’ve never been great at waiting.)
I really think that this particular theme suits my style a bit better. It’s more original, more “My Own” than the last, and I think that it shows the photography in a better light as well. For that reason alone it’s a better choice.
Don’t worry, Cooking by the seat of my Pants will be back to posting regular food related entries just as soon as I can get ‘em typed up. My obsession with “Look and Feel” won’t prevent that, and I’ve got several items just waiting to grace these pages with their yumminess.
I hope you all enjoy the new look. Don’t worry, I’ll be sticking with it for at least a year.

I like the look…is that your seat of the pants?
Sandi,
The photo above is not the “official” seat of my pants. It is, however a very reasonable facsimile. (My wife assures me that the seat of my pants is better looking, but I’m no judge of such things.) It is a very close approximation, at any rate. To my knowledge there are no surviving photos that include the seat of my pants, and I aim to keep it that way!
Nice jeans, and nice blog layout. I wish I were creative (or courageous) enough to undertake an overhaul!
Yep, I really like this look the best – way to go! Looking forward to your next post =)
Lydia,
I think your blog looks pretty good myself! I’d offer to assist if you really wanted me to, but I don’t know much about typepad.
Lisa,
It was a pleasant surprise for me when I noticed that the photos were just “popping” off the page. And as a food blogger, anything that makes the photos look good is something I’m all for!
I won’t make you wait long for new posts, either. I’ll be tossing at least three up today :)
Love the new template, I was eyeing this template when I was viewing all the new ones at Wordpress, this one just caught my eye and I really enjoy seeing it used for your foodie blog!
Laurie,
It’ll keep looking better as things go on. I’ve been a “Professional” designer for years, so I fear I’ll just keep tinkering with it until it’s perfect… Then I’ll want to change it again, LOL
[...] is caused in the process. I even have plans to include one of the more requested features that were mentioned in the last change! Stay tuned… More on this in the months to [...]
