When new bloggers join the Slashfood team, we like to make sure they get a proper introduction to our readers. However, sometimes we miss the boat and a blogger flies under the radar, writing for many months without an introduction. Kat Kinsman, the senior editor of AOL Food has been blogging for us some time and we're finally getting around to giving her a proper introduction. Please give her a nice welcome! -- Marisa McClellan
Do you have a personal blog? Yes, I do, and it resulted in my being investigated by the Secret Service -- who originally didn't realize that it was a political satire and believed that I really, truly did yearn to spend my days and nights in a vat full of pudding with Karl Rove. I hear he is an amazing chef, though. I also maintain a
Twitter.
What is your day job, or rather, what do you do when you're not food blogging?I'm the senior editor of
AOL Food, and I loooove taking my work home with me.
How long have you been blogging with Slashfood and what is your favorite post?I had been blogging at AOLfoodblog.com for rather a while when we merged with Slashfood, so if we count that, it's a bit over a year. My favorite post was
one where I talked about how my husband Douglas and I surprised our parents by getting some of our most favorite recipes from each side of our new family and having our caterers/friends serve them at
our wedding reception. I posted my
Dad's Hungarian goulash and
Douglas' Mom & Grandmother's chicken and dumplings recipes along with the story. There was just such a warm, wonderful response in the comments, and it was a treat to share this with our families.
What I didn't anticipate, though, was a commenter who took the time out to tell me how very tacky it was of us to serve such common food, and that we should have used the occasion to serve "special" "fancy" food to our guests. I wrote back to her to say that it actually was incredibly special food to us, and that we loved sharing these parts of our lives with our guests, but she just got even nastier in her response. Ah well. That's the internet for ya.
