About Darlene
My Burning Kitchen started on Blogspot in Feb. 2005 as a way to share my ideas and thoughts about food.
I’m a newspaper designer by day and food enthusiast 24 hours a day. This blog documents my food journeys in San Diego and points in between. On occasion, my husband Paul, a cartoonist and infographics journalist will do a guest post when I’m feeling lazy, uninspired or if he just wants to talk about his love of fish sandwiches.
To get acquainted with me, read some of my favorite posts:
- Why I would never let Dustin Hoffman make me french toast
- What’s this green thing in my brownie?
- A strange conversation at Comic-Con (and it’s food related)
- Font explosion at the Hillcrest Farmers Market
- Farmers Market Uniform — mentioned at The Kitchn
- A “Foodie’s” Dilemma
Other notable accolades/awards:
- Profiled on Happy Hour Magazine (Jan./Feb. 2011)
- Photos used on Huffington Post and Endless Simmer
- Judge for Taste TV’s 2nd and 3rd Annual Tasty Awards
- Guest-blogged at Indie Fixx (Tips to survive cubicle life)
- Featured blogger on Nescafe Dolce Gusto’s Facebook Fan Page (May 2011)
- Listed on The U-T/Signon San Diego as a must follow foodie on Twitter (August 2011)
- 3rd Place for Best Entertainment Website at the San Diego Press Club Awards 2011
- Top 12 short list candidate for Richmond, British Columbia’s 365 Days Dining campaign.
I was also the channel leader for Tree.com’s now defunct Food & Dining Channel editing posts, contributing stories and taking video.
Thank you for visiting and happy eating!
