If I were to start a blog that was my very own, I would
probably do something similar to Julie Powell’s blog. Everyone knows the movie
Julie & Julia. Well it is that Julie. She made 524 of Julia Child’s recipes
in 365 days.
I love to cook so a challenge similar to this would be an
amazing experience. As for the audience, I would expect it to be other lovers
of cooking. I would open it up for comments. The reason being is that audience
members could contribute to why my dishes didn’t work out. I would hope to make
money, but that’s not why I would start the blog. It would be a bonus!
Images are a must! The audience must see how my dishes
turned out. It wouldn’t be overrun with words, but it would be important to
talk about my experience making the recipes and tips and tricks. Proper
grammar? I’ll post how ever it comes out. No need for editing. It is my blog
and I am in no way an expert and do not feel the need to come off as one.
The picture below is the kind of layout I would have. It
lists the blogs in order, but you have to click on the blog to see it. It also
has a picture beside it so the audience can refer to things more quickly
instead of scrolling through a lot of posts to get to something closer to the
end.
The picture below is how the tabs would work. Instead of
scrolling through everything, the audience may want to look by specific meal.
The page below is the kind of design I would have. It’s fun
and girly. It looks very Chic. I am not sure what I would change the name to.
Hey! For the community report I followed a baking blog and I absolutely loved it. If you ever decide to make a cooking blog I would be very interested in following it. I am a confident baker but when it comes to cooking I feel like I always end up messing something up. I love that you would include pictures to show inexperienced cookers like me how the final product is supposed to look.
ReplyDeleteI personally don't cook much myself but I do enjoy looking at pictures of food like how Kristina have mentioned. Looking at yummy food with pictures makes me extra craving wanting to eat it.
DeleteI love the Julie & Julia challenge idea! If you were to ever do it I would defiantly follow you. I once contemplated doing this sort of challenge but I'm too much of a flake to commit! I like your decision to set the blog up in a way that the reader doesn't have to scroll through a million posts to find a specific one! That does drive me nuts some times.
ReplyDeleteAll the best!

I think you should totally start doing this! If you could find an inspirational cooker and then try and copy their recipes exactly like Julie and Julia. I agree with Margo, if you were to start doing this I would defiantly follow you!
ReplyDeleteThat's a cool idea. I personally love cooking but I don't have the drive to cook fancy things. I think a blog like that would be such a great motivator. And it would inspire so much learning too.
