It was the perfect recipe for the chicken and extra dry wine that I had accumulated during a wine tasting my boyfriend and I hosted at our house this weekend.
I had just finished sauteeing the pearl onions when I put the chicken pieces into the still oily pan and gently browned them. Then I moved the chicken to a plate, sprinkled salt and pepper on it. And updated my Facebook status.
"Roxana Popescu is seasoning."
I felt obliged to add:
"Roxana Popescu (yes I have the laptop in the kitchen with me... how else will I feed the internet IV drip?)"
Which generated a flurry of conversation:
So the idea was born.EL: There are support groups for that... I guess....

NLJ: I dare you to try 365 days w/o the internet! Double dare! Except I'd hate to find you foaming at the mouth and shivering on the bathroom floor

Roxana Popescu: I adore the idea, but my first thought was -- that would make a great blog! I am such a lost cause...

NLJ: That's what your typewriter is for, then you could have Andrei post it online for you (which you would be unable to see, of course). I bet he would love the creative control.

Roxana Popescu: That is most tempting. But what would I DO with myself those extra 16 hours a day???

NLJ: You could type out what you are gonna put online the following year. I think it would be cool.

I owe it all to NLJ. And EL. And that chicken.
