The second and more important change to the site is administrative in nature but I think it\u2019ll improve our content overall. I\u2019ve been dating posts in \u201creal time\u201d, meaning that the date posted is the date we ate\/cooked whatever I\u2019m writing about. I did this because even though we started writing content for our blog on May 17, 2009 (our first wedding anniversary), technical difficulties prevented us from uploading content to the site until a few weeks later. Since I was the only one posting for the first few months, it wasn\u2019t a problem for me to keep track of dates and post everything in chronological order. However, when Josh made his first posts, they were dated as of that current date. I had to make him change the dates to something older because otherwise, his posts would always be at the top until I caught up to date with my own posts, which might never happen.<\/p>\n

Using original dates presented another problem because if we wanted to comment about something that happened recently, such as Daniel earning a third Michelin star (impressive, it\u2019s moved to the top of my \u201cmust go to\u201d list) or the closing of Chanterelle (sad for the industry, but really wasn\u2019t impressed with the food when we were there two years ago), we would run into the same problem with those posts always staying on top unless we changed the date, but then it wouldn\u2019t make sense and would look like we had predicted the future. So from now on, posts will be dated as of whatever the current date it is.<\/p>\n

And finally, I\u2019ll be jumping around with my restaurant reviews and posting about meals that were more interesting to me first rather than in chronological order of when we went to the restaurants. I know you all don\u2019t really care what day we actually ate at those restaurants. And as a bonus for me, I won\u2019t feel so pressured to \u201ccatch up\u201d on posts, since I\u2019m still writing about things that happened a few weeks ago but would rather post about other things, such as our trip, immediately.<\/p>\n

Hopefully these changes will help make our blog better and more enjoyable for our readers. As always, please feel free to leave any comments or suggestions on other ways we can improve our site \u2013 we would love to hear from you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
