Getting Started- Nick’s Introduction
Welcome to Steaknite.org, we sure are glad to have you join us.
I don’t know if you ever thought about starting a blog, but when Geoff and I did, we thought it would be a piece of cake. It turns out that making that first post is way more unnerving than we thought. Once you realize that the Internet never forgets anything, and that your mother might read this (because now she’s using “Google” in a sentence) you get stage fright! What if nobody reads it? Wait… what if everybody reads it! I’ve given a thousand presentations at work, in front of vice presidents even, and writing about Steak is what makes me shake in my boots?? Well, that’s just plain silly, so here goes….
Ok, Geoff’s a big boy, so I’m going to let him introduce himself. My name is Nick. I’m Canadian by birth and also American because my parents were born in the States (and were kind enough to get me a dual citizenship). So, I’m just as likely to throw out an “Eh” (yes, it has a capital E) as I am a “huh” (yes, Americans say it). I like to keep you guessing, so you won’t know which one I’m going to use. I’m also an engineer and…. well, I love Steak Nite! We’ll get more into that later (or see the about page).
I met Geoff a few years back and after we realized our mutual interest in food and wine, Geoff and his wife introduced my wife and I to Steak Nite. Since then, we’ve been driving our wives nuts by talking almost non-stop about all things related to Steak Nite, including starting this blog.
So, thanks for coming, hope you like it. Also, feel more than free to comment, or even to email.
