This is one for the foodies, if there are any amongst you.
My food blog is long overdue for a redesign. I'm going to be moving it from blogspot to self-hosted Wordpress, and have nailed down my layout, navigation and so on.
But I've been struggling to come up with a look, centred around a beautiful banner image that conveys not only the title and tagline but a bit about me and my blog. From that will flow the design of the rest of the site, including colours, buttons and everything else.
So I've decided to ask for help.
As an IT Trainer, I know how frustrating it is to be expected to help out for free just because you work in the kind of job where that's possible (who'd ask their surgeon mate to just come over for a couple of hours and do a quick operation on their dodgy knee?)...
So I'm offering a small prize.
My mum and I have been running cookery classes through her very successful Indian cookery website, Mamta's Kitchen. The classes are small in size, and take place in a domestic kitchen, in mum's home in Luton. They usually run from late morning to about 8pm during which time students learn how to make lots of delicious dishes, which they enjoy for lunch and dinner, along with snacks and drinks during the day. Thus far, classes have focused on cooking Indian meals, but we're planning future classes on pickles and chutneys, on Indian breads and more.
The prize is a (single) place on a class. Travel/ accommodation not included.
The classes retail for £95, though similar classes offered by professional cookery schools are far more expensive, especially when you factor in the inclusion of lunch, dinner, snacks and drinks.
