Please Donate to the Passionate Foodie

Since 2007, I've posted over 5,600 articles on The Passionate Foodie blog. That's quite an achievement and next year will be the 19th Anniversary of my blog. I hope to continue writing for many more years and maybe one day I'll reach 10,000 articles! There's certainly plenty of interesting topics involving food and drink which I can write about. 

As you may or may not know, I don't advertise on my blog or use affiliate links, preferring to keep my blog free of such matters. Others may advertise on their blogs, and that's fine for them, but I simply chose not to go that route. So, my blog does not generate any direct income. 

However, I incur expenses for my blog, including gaining access to the research archives that I use to write my extensive historical articles. Freelance writing is a tough profession, and it can be very difficult to acquire paying gigs. And even when you acquire paying gigs, they often pay only a small amount.    

Thus, once a year, I make a request of my readers. If you appreciate my blog, if you have found value in my numerous articles, and if you'd like to see me continue to write, please consider donating to me here through PayPal. A donation, of any amount, would be greatly appreciated. 

In addition, if you have any ideas for future articles that you would like to see on my blog, please leave a comment here or send me an email. I'm always seeking out new items to write about, and some of my readers have previously suggested topics which I have subsequently covered.

Thanks very much for your consideration and Happy Holidays!
