About
With cyberspace being in a virtual land rush, I staked a claim on my name several years ago. After denying a few requests from other Chad Chandlers out there who wanted to buy it, I thought I'd throw a blog on the domain. Feel free to follow along as I work on hobbies and projects around the house.
Why A Blog?
The site mostly exists to keep my out-of-state family apprised of my activities. Most of the content involves cooking, woodworking or sightseeing. I post my recipes on here because my wife and I are trying to catalogue them in one place. It’s like adding a search engine to your recipe tin. When I’m ready to prepare something, I just pull up the blog post on my smartphone and voilà; no more searching through countless folders and books for an ingredients list; no more trying to decipher handwritten notes in the margins; no more scraping hardened sauce off of the instructions. The same is true of my woodworking posts. This blog acts as a public scrapbook so I can instantly access pictures of my work. If there are people out there who stumble across my blog and want to use my original designs and learn from my myriad mistakes, then I’m only too happy to help.
To What End?
I’m not hoping to get anything out of this website except a little organization and a some self-satisfaction. This is not a springboard to something bigger. I don’t even post with any reliable frequency, nor do I plan to, so I shed readers quickly. If you’d like to follow along, you’re probably better off subscribing to the feed than randomly checking for new content.
