Dear Cooking Blog Writer – I Don’t Care What You Had for Dinner. Can You Please Write About the INTERESTING Part of Your Life?

I have a confession to make.  My favorite blog is a food blog.  And the truth is I could care less what the author cooks every day.  In fact, she actually bugs me a little bit.  So why on earth do I look forward to each post?

I knew the author in high school.  Now she lives in LA with a certain late-night TV personality and is raising her meal ticket I mean their child.  I’m absolutely fascinated by the situation.  It’s very well-played, in my opinion.

An additional layer of the story is that the author’s dad is actually a soap opera star.  So it seems like “have a celeb’s baby and live a comfortable life without having to actually do anything” runs in the family.  It’s really a fascinating scenario.

Every once in a while there’s a mention of “my boyfriend” in the writing.  That is what I’m interested in hearing about: What is it like being a normal girl from the Midwest, living in LA with a famous TV personality?  It’s almost like a real-life version of The Princess Diaries.  Except it seems to be a much more calculated scenario.

Am I a little bit jealous?  Maybe.  Either way, I wish the blog author all the best: she certainly seems to have it all figured out.  And I will continue to pretend I’m interested in her cooking adventures.
