Taking the plunge

After three years of blogging here I finally have decided to give in and buy a proper domain name for this blog. Welcome to the new www.bruleeblog.com! Your old bookmarks and favourites will still work, but you may want to update them just in case.

Along with the new domain name, I also decided to change up the design of the site with a new theme. It’s got a lot of different colours from the old site. What do you think?

I know I haven’t been blogging too much lately (lack of time, unfortunately), but I do have a few surprises coming up for you all in the very near future. Stay tuned!

  1. congratulations on the new blog Ms. Brulee :-D . i’m liking the new design. ive been thinking of this as well, but still contemplating. kids take up a lot of time and i don’t want get into something i won’t be able to keep up with and waste the money. have a lovely weekend.

    • I felt the same way, which is why I waited three years. :)

  2. Wow! Finally! LOVE your new blog design. I am inspired to change my black to something more snazzy like yours. I love the colour combination. Looking forward to the next step and reading more :=) All the best,

    • Jenn, just go in the themes section under appearance and you can preview your blog in a bunch of different pre-made themes. It moved everything over for me except for my widgets, which I just had to put back in from the “unused” box (all the widgets were saved but were just stripped out of my old design).

      • I looked into the themes and liked your design best. You have great taste! LOL :) I settled with the Twenty ten theme, as I liked the layout best and chose the grey background, but perhaps will play around with the background colours over time. The black background was a little hard to read for me, even though it was artistic. Thanks for your help. All the best!

        • I like it – the photo in the banner is spectacular!

  3. I love surprises!!

    • I think you will like the next one a lot.

  4. love love love the new look!

    dont know how you have the time for all this!

    cheers
    su :)

    • It’s called “WordPress has pre-made theme designs.” ;)

  5. Love the vibrant red swath of paint as your header. Great look. I am sure you will enjoy the manipulative power that the domain will give you. :)

    • Now I just have to find the time to do something with it….

  6. Love the new site! Beautiful. Can’t wait for the surprises :) Cheers!

    • Thanks Marianne!

  7. I can’t see the changes on my iPad. I’ll have to check it out on my laptop. The new wordpresse iPad swipe setup leaves a lot of details out.

    • Are you viewing it through an app or as a website?

  8. I’m biased because I’m a designer so I’m loving the theme you chose, and ha, what a small world, I know the guy who did it, too. :)

    As for your domain, you can always create an email forwarder and be all official-like with any food or blog related stuff.

    • I know I could change the e-mail but I’m also lazy. ;) Tell your friend that I love his design!!
