Pie Crust Animal Cookies + 2 Years of Blogging

Pie Crust Animal Cookies Recipe + 2 Years of Blogging | Cake Over Steak cakeoversteak.com

As of this week, I’ve been blogging for two years. TWO YEARS! I’m merely a toddler in blog years, but it still seems like an accomplishment that I’ve stuck with this project for so long. Some days it’s easy to feel like I haven’t made it far enough in the blogging world – but when I really look back on where I was, I can’t help but see that I’ve at least made progress. That day two years ago when I anxiously hit the “publish” button on my first post was the result of 6 months of hands-on behind the scenes prep work and over two years of brain preparation. Since then, I’ve made so many new friends and gained new skills. I think I’ve become a better recipe developer and hopefully a better writer. I’ve become a real (amateur) food photographer, taking over Robert’s beautiful work to put my hand in the ring. The photography has now become one of my favorite parts of the blogging process. I’ve experimented with new illustration styles (like this, this and this), traveled to meet people and learn new things (and will hopefully do a lot more of that in the future), written some guest posts for blogs I truly admire (like Food52 and A Couple Cooks), and I’ve been on a couple podcasts (The Dinner Special and ChoppedCon). These are all things I had HOPED I would do with my blog, so I can’t even tell you how happy I am to be where I am right now. Blogging can be amazing and there are a lot of resources out there to help if you know where to look for it, for example, if you’re interested in starting your own blog you might want to look into something like www.hostiserver.com to help leave your mark on the blogging world like I have!
