I’m okay with missing the Kidlitosphere conference.  Mostly because I’m too new to feel like part of the Kidlitosphere - I’ve only been posting for a couple of months now.  But I do have to extend a huge thanks to MotherReader for putting up a summary of her session on blog promotion.  This is exactly the sort of information I need, being a newbie and all.  The problem, of course, is that I don’t know if I have anything important enough to say about children’s literature and food.  At least, nothing important enough to warrant blog creation.  So the jury is still out on that.  Nevertheless, I found MotherReader’s stuff enormously helpful.
One question, though: will I be completely ostracized for not taking part in Poetry Friday?  I really don’t like poetry, for the most part.  Shel Silverstein, Pablo Neruda, and Walt Whitman are about it.  And everybody likes them, right?  And I’m not posting Whitman every week – his poems can be damn long.  Is posting only excerpts from his poems completely blasphemous?  Hmmm…I’ll have to think more on this.
COMING UP: I swear, I really am going to post reviews of Miss Spitfire and 100 Cupboards.  Seriously.  I will.

Your food and kids' books opinions are always relevant, Pinot! And please don't worry about Poetry Friday; it's one of those things that's there if you want it. I am a kids' poetry convert, though haiku still makes me itchy sometimes.
