250 posts later…

This post marks the 250th article on the Zippy Sauce blog. Last week I was playing around with Blogspot’s new templates and gave the site a new look.

I removed the Robert Parker Wine of the Day gadget as most of the wines listed on it aren’t available at the LCBO and it added a cluttered look to the blog that I wasn’t keen on.

I added a new Comments gadget that lists the last three comments posted (bottom right hand side). I noticed that a couple of my posts had spam comments which I have deleted. This gadget will hopefully keep me on top of any spam. It will also be nice to display any new comments posted from my 4 or 5 loyal readers of this blog as well.

A Google search gadget has also been added (top right hand side). Mick complains to me all the time for not putting years down when I listed a wine in the Zippy Sauce wine list. Now he can search by wine + year and find what he is looking for. It is also useful to find meals that we have had as there wasn’t an easy way to do this until now.

Hopefully you all enjoy the new look and the new gadgets… one day, I'll take care of the spelling mistakes and grammar too, but don’t hold your breathe!

Cheers!

Mark

I hope the typo at the very end was intentional...!

Yes it was intentional, I thought it was funny...
