Dear Friends,
It has been too long since I have last been able to visit with all you, of my dearest friends. My situation is one I had never anticipated.
When Hurricane Sandy swept through the North East, it left many thousands devastated, including myself. I lost the main floor of my home and all its contents. My home is not inhabitable, which is why I have been unable to visit with you all.
However, I am blessed to be safe with my family. It may be a while longer until I can get back to cooking again, but I wanted to let you know that I am safe and well. I miss you all so much!
Experiencing this storm brings many emotions. The kindness of the neighbors and the many strangers who now have found a place in my heart will reinforce the goodness of man. This experience is a whirlwind of emotions but mostly ones that show me the meaning of a smile.
I look forward to being a part of your day soon. I will keep you posted.

I'm so sorry to hear about your house, but equally glad that you are safe. I'll be looking forward to the day when your wonderful recipes return...
