Au Revoir

I always thought that when the time came to write my final blog for College Kitchen, I would have some pearls of wisdom to impart. Some sort of sum-it-all-up lesson about…well, I don’t even know what.

People think I’m a good cook. The truth is, I’m just as clueless as everybody else. When I cook, I just throw a bunch of food into a pan and hope that it turns out okay. Sometimes it does. Often, it doesn’t. I’m no authority on the kitchen; I’m just a broke college kid with a laptop and a love of food.

Granted, I also thought that I’d take this blog all the way to graduation. But the fact of the matter is, I just can’t keep up with it. Between Backdrop, Southeast Ohio magazine, work, class and job/apartment/insurance/car hunting, I just don’t have time to cook like I used to. Maybe there’s some tidbit of wisdom I would have learned in the next five weeks to share with you; maybe my inability to keep up is preventing you readers (both of you) from learning some important life lesson from me. Or maybe I’m just tired and anxious and trying to pull significance out of thin air.

Food is a popular topic with us Backdrop writers…I’m sure that another writer will step up to the plate (pun intended) and take over as resident food writer, thereby satiating your need for cheap and easy recipes. Maybe that person will be able to leave you with that last lingering morsel of wisdom you were looking for.

Or maybe you can just go out and find that yourself, like the rest of us.

Peace, love and Backdrop forever,

Emma
