Camemberu is 3 Years Old!

I'm very pleased to unveil the (very overdue) new look for Camemberu.com! The blog turns 3 today (we share the same 'birthday' but how I wish I was still three). Is three years a long time to dedicate to food journalling? Not really, but eating has certainly become serious fun, and photography an expensive hobby (ouch). Amazingly, I've had the privilege to meet my food and travel heroes Bob Blumer and Ian Wright. But most of all, I'm awed by the many people who read this blog, and I've gotten to know some of you through comments, Twitter, Facebook and in real life.

You might also know the OMY Singapore Blog Awards are back for 2010. We had a blast last year. Last night, someone kindly nominated me in the Best Food Blog category. I went in and saw quite a few blogs in there already, and I rallied for Teczscape. If you haven't seen her blog, go now! I always learn something from her well-researched posts. Go nominate your favourite food blogs or check out some new ones.

We're seeing lots more food blogs these days - well, "good food must share!" right? Yes, and in the words of Nigella whom I found out loves food blogs, "...it's just a bigger banquet!"

  12. Thanks again, everyone!

    Yes, I know the font colours are a little dim. I have to go code-diving to find and change them. With passing birthdays, my eyesight is not as good anymore, so it'll take a bit of time. Hehe.

  22. Heya Catherine

    Love the new site! But a suggestion, can u change the background to black? Its still a nice new attractive design nontheless.

    Gonna miss the old layout! :D

  23. Thank you, everyone for your kind wishes!

    Marcus - Sorry I can't change the background colour (this template is a little different). But I've been staring at black for 3 years now, so this cool brown coffee-gray is a nice change. Plus, quite a few people have said black backgrounds make text hard to read (not for me though, oddly I find it less glaring).
