Hello my friend!
So, I owe you all an apology.
1. If you’ve been on the sitethe past 2 weeks, it’s been a bit glitchy. We had to change to a new website server host – I was with my old host for 12 years and the past couple of years, their level of service has declined.
The day I made the decision to switch, Steamy Kitchen mysteriously went down! Conspiracy? Coincidence? LOL well, who knows!
Moving servers is kinda a big deal – it’s like picking up your entire house and its contents and moving the whole thing to a different city. It has finally stabilized and all is good.
2. I’ve been getting emails from longtime readers, wondering where I’ve been and if I’ve been okay! It turns out a big chunk of my favorite people have not been getting my weekly emails!
It was probably my fault – every time I send out an email, it goes to just under 50,000 people on the Steamy Kitchen list. I use a service that helps me identify who I’m emailing to, and I probably did something wrong in a setting!
I toggled a few switches, and hopefully, this email will reach everyone.
3. If you enjoy our giveaways – we’ve also had to switch our technology that runs the giveaways (meaning, I don’t just pick a name out of a hat to choose winners!) as our old system was on its last legs.
Over the years, we’ve had to do so many work-arounds, patches just to keep up with how the site and my audience needs have evolved. My biggest fear was that it would break!
We’re still getting used to the new system….I know it was running super slow and hiccuping a bit, and I thank you so much for your patience.
Don’t worry, all your entries from prior have been ported over. We’ve got lots of eyes on this – between myself, DeAnna (Steamy Kitchen web developer) and ViralSweep co-founder, we are contantly monitoring everything.
Change is difficult. I know. During crazy times like this, it seems the world is crumbling at the edges. People, including myself, crave familiarity and stability.
I’m sorry for so many changes at Steamy Kitchen…these were things we had to do to keep the site running!
The past two weeks of changes has been a little tough. I catch myself at times holding my breath, in ‘fight or flight’ mode.
And then I look at Duke, who is so happy, always loving, has no worries other than “where’s the ball!?” and all is ok again!
BAKED GARLIC PARMESAN CHICKEN WINGS
Make these wings! You can bake them in the oven, or air-fryer. The recipe is from Chef Jesse in Mount Dora, Florida. This is his most popular appetizer at the restaurant and it’s so simple to make. I use shaker grated parmesan. If you don’t have fresh parsley, just use your favorite dried herb seasoning mix. Get the recipe.

What are you grateful for today? Is there anyone you need to reach out to and just say hello, I’m thinking about you?
Sending you hugs and basket of happy sunshine.
Jaden & Dukey-boy
