Gourmet Geek Grand Opening

Gourmet Geek is now officially open for business. I announced its creation on my slashjournal, which you may be visiting from, and here it is. Whether or not this site gets visits or is a desolate wasteland, I will continue to update it as long as I please. I’m considering doing some sort of daily or weekly roundup, but that’s overdone.
