Thanks to the Feature Story on the Corkdork on Typepad's homepage, I suddenly have a lot of new readers so I thought I would jot a quick introduction to what this blog is about and why it's here.
What you'll find on the Corkdork is a record of some of the good things in life I've had the pleasure in tasting. Unlike a regular wine and food critic, you'll mostly find the positive and I'll do my best to omit the purely negative. If I write about it, chances are, it's because I want to remember it in a positive light, and let you, the reader, take advantage of my filtering. The main exceptions will be in the name of being thorough at big tastings, or the rare time I don't like the bottle I've chosen for Wine Blogging Wednesday.
In the spirit of a journal, I also try to put up recipes I've concocted in the kitchen or cocktail shaker that I want to remember or to share with friends. Though I do occasionally get trade samples, the vast majority of the things I write about are things I've bought myself.
I hope you'll subscribe, and I'll do my best to keep it upbeat and informative. Welcome!
does anyone else search wineexpress.com, wine reviews per city or wineology from their mobile phone? im obsessed with it lately and found Boopsie to be the fastest mobile search around.
not only is it quick, but useful, as each site i access using Boopsie is made to fit my mobile phone screen for easy navigation. its saved me in a few binds.
yes, i too am a dork.
