This weekend I attended the International Food Bloggers Conference in Seattle, put on by Foodista. I have so much that I want to say, but my brain is absolute mush after so much information/food/wine/friends/excitement/sleeplessness. I have a list of 348726374 ideas for potential posts, but every single one of them will have to wait until I catch up on some REM and figure out how to reinsert myself back into daily life.
I do want to say a few things, though:
Thank you Foodista – Barnaby, Colin, Sheri, et al – for putting on an amazing event. My mind has been officially blown.
Many thanks to Sur la Table – Susanna and Rebecca – for a goody bag that left me floored (literally, prostrate on the ground of the Seattle airport at six this morning).
One thousand appreciative bows and curtsies to Robert and Roxanne for taking me in for the weekend. 
And thank you to each and every person that I met at the conference. I had no idea that food bloggers had such an exceptional support system in place, and I’m very excited to be a part of it.

Thank you for making the trip…It was great meeting you!
I think you summed it up pretty well there. I’m still in a daze after the weekend – it’ll take a while to absorb the whole experience I think!
Thank you! It was wonderful seeing everyone’s happy faces at the IFBC with their goodie bags. Such a fun time.
