Welcome To Your Blog!

The video that started it all

 And here it is at last, Jacob and Jamie - Your Blog! Here for you to share with the world and me your favourite recipes and stories. You may be wondering, "And what is this exactly?" so I shall explain. Just over two months ago, I started a blog about my cooking adventures and how I came to love food. Back in 2007, I saw Jamie Oliver's 'Happy Days' video concert in London and that was that for me, the journey had begun. The blog title was inspired by the true story of Julia Child and Julie Powell (whose own, infamous blog I found most distasteful as did Julia Child herself) from which the movie 'Julie and Julia' was made and so I changed it to myself and the man who started it all off for me, Jamie. (If you would like to know more then visit the 'about' page of my main blog here at Jacob and Jamie - About This Blog)

See it as a challenge if you will

 In only a sixty days my blog climbed to well over a thousand views from over twenty countries which I never dreamed would happen but as I was writing and posting stuff, I really wanted to get my readers more involved and brings things closer to them. That is how Jacob and Jamie - Your Blog came to be. Now we can get as many people cooking as we can, all sharing their love for food with the entire world! I can't say how excited I am at where this could go and the lives we could bring joy to even if it's the smallest of smidgens. Joy is priceless and so if we can give that to people through doing something that we all love then bingo, we've hit the jackpot!

 However, so that we can all get the best out of this blog and fully enjoy it, I will now take the time to lay down some rules if I may. Rules keep order and give boundaries so I think we kind of need them.

BLOG RULES

1. As blog author, I have the final say as to what content is permitted in your post drafts both text and pictures (So, as my brother correctly said, "No pretending to be the Naked Chef!")
2. All information offered in your posts is at your own risk, the blog author can take no responsibility for it
3. And if you guys don't send anything then nothing can get posted!

 That should about cover things. If you would like to contact me then write to onedeliciousman@gmail.com. (Your patience is greatly appreciated if I take a while to get back to you.)

 Right, now all of you get cooking and writing up recipes! Be it the smallest of fancies to the hugest, marinated hunks of meat cooked for hours, send them in. For those who may be afraid of trying to cook, be courageous and daring. For those who already cook but are looking for something new, be exotic and original. And to all of you, be creative and unafraid to discover what you are really capable of. I really can't wait to hear from you all!

Seasoned with Hope,

Jacob
