Why Now?

So I've decided to start a blog. I've owned a blog before, on a different subject matter, but my full time and a second part time job kept me from maintaining it. So it went to blog heaven.  That was 5 years ago and now I've decided to start a new blog on something that I feel is interesting enough for someone to read. For the past few 6 years, I've been an avid Yelp user; reading reviews, writing reviews and attending Yelp events.  I have over 500 reviews to this date and as you can see, I've made my mark in numerous cities across the U.S. I became Yelp Elite in 2009 (let's hear the "ooohs"and "aahhs"), and with that status I was able to contribute my insights and opinions based on my experiences at various events and venues.  Since then, my presence in the Yelp community has brought many opportunities in the social media world within the food and events arena.
