20 Questions with a Slashfoodie: Neil Goldstein

Filed under: Our Bloggers

When new bloggers join the Slashfood team, we like to make sure they get a proper introduction to our readers. You've met Julie Tilsner, Monika Bartyzel, Stefani Pollack, Ellen Slattery, Shayna Glick, Sarah J. Gim and Alanna Kaufman. Now meet the latest addition to our team, Neil Goldstein. -- Marisa McClellan

Do you have a personal blog? Neil and Amy Goldstein
Yes, I maintain two main blogs, FOFIO! which is my personal blog, and The Eaten Path, which is where I post my food-related writing. Also a freeware blog and one for my late brother Paul. My daughter Amy does most of the photography for my posts. You can see her work here.

What is your day job, or rather, what do you do when you're not food blogging?
I am a techie. I work as a senior desktop support tech for AOL in the East Village of Manhattan.

How long have you been blogging with Slashfood and what is your favorite post?
I started two months ago, with two posts I wrote on wild edibles. My favorite so far, was Sarah Gim's very honest and accurate writeup on the scary Banquet Salisbury Steak Dinner. My kids and I repeatedly joke about TV-dinner style meals. The ones with deserts are even worse since you always end up with a corn brownie or pudding fries.

Do you have any non-food-related, non-blogging hobbies?
Hiking, music, and all things technical.

20 Questions with a Slashfoodie: Kat Kinsman

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.

Do you have a personal blog?
I have a few anonymous ones, but none that I update regularly.

Lots and lots of writing. My days are filled with movies and food.

I'm still in my first month at Slashfood! It's too early to name a favorite.
