Berlin Reified: Food, design and life in Berlin

One year/Autumn

But now one senses the season's tip into winter. I remember this day last year as more luminous - sitting on the sofa, searching out my first photos, trying to wrangle the Typepad software into doing what I wanted it to do. People seem to commemorate their anniversaries, so here's mine; and on this occasion I can note that writing Berlin Reified makes me pay close attention to the world and brings to that  observing the joy of knowing I have a single radiant someone to share that world with (for I imagine you as one particular reader, reading this as I write). And reader, what do you make of it all, I wonder? And what do you like, and what do you like less?

About Reified

A year or two ago I discovered the world of food blogs. The first few weeks I spent drop-jawed, busily reading through archives, elated to discover so many obsessed with my obsessions. As time went on, my reading branched out and I discovered design blogs and other blogs on this and that. Wowed by it all, wanting to join in the fun, I've meant to start my own blog for months to collect everything I want to share with others. Now I've finally done it.

I'm a twenty-eight-year-old American and have lived in Berlin since 2001.
