Yes folks it seems that video has killed the blogger in me, but it hasn't. It has just temporarily hidden in a dark room, but that writer can't be kept down too much longer. I am focusing on my YouTube Channel, Claudia's Tasty Bits at the moment. I am trying to reach 1000 Subscribers by July 1st. That isn't too many, but it is about double what I have now.
