Welcome

Everything starts somewhere. This starts here. A Blow to the Head refers to what some consider the root cause of "Gourmand Syndrome," which is exactly what it sounds like: an obsession with good food. Apparently, one can go from utility-eater to foodie/chowhound/itinerant blogger in one swift bonk to the old bean. Well, when I was 7 or 8, I knocked mine pretty hard on the cement floor of a pool I happened to be skateboarding in at the time. There's not much more to say for now. This is about that. Not the head injury--the food. This is a blog about food. Not because the world needs another one, but because since that crack to the skull in the pool, I've thought about food a lot, and I need somewhere to write, and this is there.

Ok, so it won't all be about food. But the good stuff probably will be.
