As you’ve probably figured out, this is the brand new home of Everybody Likes Sandwiches. Everything has been primped and gussied up and I think we did a bang-up job. The we being me who did the design and illustration side of things (plus all the long long days of categorizing and formatting over five years of posts) and my fantastic husband who did all the coding and back end programming. He created a custom WordPress template just for me and I couldn’t be happier.
Besides all the great old content and recipes that were on my old Blogspot blog, there’s a few new things here to whet your whistle. Great things like:
- A brand new search feature! So search away to your hearts content!
- A fantastic new recipe index that actually updates itself instead of me manually updating months later!
- Think you know me & this blog? Well, now you do with my new About page. How cool!
- A comprehensive FAQ page with all the questions you’ve been asking answered.
- You can now receive Everybody Likes Sandwiches posts by email by signing up on the sidebar. This is great for people checking at work in case your employer blocks the site and you can also be confident that I will never use your email for any other purpose. And you can unsubscribe anytime. Options people!
- An updated Blogroll with lots of my favorite sites from the food world and beyond.
- And lots more cool little things to discover while browsing around.
Of course there’s a few things that still need to get done around here – like adding a custom print style sheet so that you can print out all the recipes in style, a recipe conversions page and a few other miscellaneous bits and bobs. Oh and here’s a little public service announcement if you are an Internet Explorer 6 user: IE6 is outdated and while this site will look decent on it, why not update to a better browser? Safari, Google Chrome, Firefox or even IE8 are all better options. Us web designer types hate IE6 and to make the web a better & safer experience you will want to make the switch.
Unfortunately a few things got lost in the move….like comments on certain posts. Only a few posts were affected, so I figure it’s just a small price to pay. I’m still looking for the tail top lid to my ceramic squirrel cookie jar 3 years after moving apartments. Thems the breaks.
Got any feedback or criticisms? Leave me a comment! And most definitely please let me know if you encounter a dead link or some other kind of crazy error as you check things out. I’ve spent a lot of time going over everything but with five years of posts I’m sure that I’ve missed a few things along the way. Please update your RSS feeds (see the lil’ orange birdie to your right?) and if you do link to this blog on your own site or on some online bookmarking site, please update to the new address. Thanks.
So now that this introduction is out of the way, I’ll be getting back to all the regular recipes and food posts you’ve come to expect. Take your shoes off and stay awhile!

Welcome to the club. Love it! RSS updated and all systems a go.
Oh, it is BEAUTIFUL! I love the retro images and the layout is divine. Kudos! (Plus I saw that you and your husband did this together, rather than outsourcing…that just makes it even more a labor of love!)
Congratulations on the site! Everything looks great, but I am especially fond of the icons on the right sidebar. So cute!

Hi Jeanette! I really liked your old blog, which I’ve been following for about 6 months or so. But, I LOVE your new website! I especially like the vegan recipes. I am a new vegan, only a month, and your recipes have been a life saver.
Your new site is beautiful! I love your design. Looking forward to exploring more.
Beautiful! Love the redesign. I can’t get over how adorable all the graphics are.
P.S. Everything seems to work when I view it from Safari on my iPhone. 🙂
Well isn’t this fancy! This is so nice and spacious… I may just stay a while 🙂
Fantastic work!!! I love the veggie characters. The moustachioed tomato is adorable 🙂

I love the new look. It’s very sweet. And I really like how the top looks like a paper lunchbag. So. Cute.

Welcome home! It looks great – the header reminds me of the old-school concession ads at drive-in movie theaters. I’ll have to browse through your archives, as I’m sure there are some gems I have yet to make.
Love the new site! Congratulations on all your (and husband’s) hard work. Everything work’s really well together and it’s easy to navigate too.
Love the news digs! Congratulations. It’s a great space and I appreciate the new features. Off to check out that About page now..
Congrats – I love the new look!
Where is the RSS feed? Google reader doesn’t seem to find it and I can’t locate it after looking around either. 🙁
Hi Dan, I’m working out the bugs but the RSS feed is here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/EverybodyLikesSandwiches You should be able to find it just by adding my blog url into Google Reader but there may be a few kinks yet. My guess is that Google Reader still has the non-feedburner feed cached. Good luck and thanks for letting me know!
congrats on the new site – it looks amazing!
Oh my! What a lovely, lovely new design! You and your husband are both so talented!

Love what you have done and accomplished! Wow! I’m not a writer but I love creating themed food. Haven’t been blogging long and am painstakingly trying to redo my background….baby steps! Combining my blog and my website, wish I could but I’m not a designer. Limited talents!

Hi – just wanted to say I’ve been reading your blog for a while and love it. So many yummy recipes! I’m a Vancouver designer/marketer with a love for food too and your site helped motivate me to start my own blog (which I’ve been talking about doing for a long time). It’s really just a side project for my own entertainment, and to document my fun in the kitchen. Keep up the inspiring cooking! Love the new site. 🙂
Thanks so much K8ie for writing! I’m so flattered that I’m blushing over here 🙂 Your site looks awesome so keep up the good work!
