Welcome To Summer Tomato!
This is the official launch of Summer Tomato! Welcome!
Summer Tomato is an upgrade of the blog Thought for Food I have been running on Google’s Blogger for the past 9 months. While Blogger was a fantastic place for me to get started, its limitations could sometimes detract from the readers’ experience. And because my readers deserve the best, I have created Summer Tomato!
If you are a Thought for Food loyalist, never fear. All the old posts and comments from summertomato.blogspot.com have been moved here safe and sound. My main goal for this site was not to start from scratch but to make it easier to navigate and find what you’re looking for.
Here are some new features at Summer Tomato:
- Categories One of the biggest factors in my decision to migrate to the WordPress platform was the ability to sort posts into categories. Because of how I approach food and health, my articles can range from science to recipes to politics. You can now navigate all Summer Tomato categories using the colorful menu at the top of the page.
- About I finally have an About page! Everything you’ve always wanted to know about me or this blog can be found there. Navigation options can be found on the About page sidebar.
- Healthstyle I am sick and tired of the word diet and am now using the word Healthstyle to describe healthy eating. You can read all about it here.
- Ask Me People have lots of questions about health and nutrition and I love to answer them! There is now a section of this blog where you can post questions about health and nutrition, and I will do my best to address them in a future article. I think this could be really fun, and I hope you participate. For now it is just an experiment, so we will see how it works out.
- Contact Form Summer Tomato has an official form if you would like to contact me personally. This is a perfect place to address private inquiries and suggestions.
- Shop Summer Tomato has a new store powered by Amazon! I am really excited about this feature because Amazon usually has the best prices on the internet and now I can easily point you to my favorite books, kitchen gadgets and other fun foodie things and you can make purchases directly from within this site. At the Summer Tomato store you can find everything you need for learning about food, health and cooking. You can stock a new kitchen, take your Healthstyle on the road or upgrade to the coolest toys. Many of the products also feature my personal reviews and I will continue to update these whenever possible. Any purchases you make through the
I encourage you to explore the new Summer Tomato site and let me know what you think. All suggestions are welcome and I will do my best to reply to any comments or questions you may have.
If you currently subscribe to the Thought for Food email or RSS feeds, your subscription should continue to work with Summer Tomato. If it does not, please contact me as soon as possible so I can fix it. Also, if you are currently linking this blog from another website, it would be great if you could update your link to SummerTomato.com.
This site will continue to evolve over time and I hope that the changes reflect the needs of the readers. If you like this blog, please share it with your friends and family. Summer Tomato can only be as strong as the community we build together.
Thanks to everyone who has already helped make Summer Tomato possible, I couldn’t have done it without you.

The new site looks fabulously scrumptous – Love it! Looking forward to digging in deeper and sharing thoughts. Way to go – Cheers! Jenna
Thank you Jenna! I’m so glad you like it 🙂
Not sure why your link doesn’t work, everyone else’s seems to be functional. Maybe we had some first time jitters. Lemme know if it happens again and I’ll look into it.
Looks great. So far, easy to maneuver.
Thank you!!! It was so fun to create! Let me know if you have any problems, find any broken links, etc.
You’re a rock star, darya!
Thanks for dropping by! Let me know if you have any problems.
You launched your new site today too?? What synchronicity!
LOVE the new site! It is fantastic. Congrats 😉
Thanks Shannon! I’m really looking forward to seeing how it grows. Hopefully we’ll be ripe and juicy by summer 😉
It’s purty! Nice work.
Thank you! I’ve spent a lot of time boning up on my photography skills. Not to mention my computer hacking skills 😉
Well i was pleasantly surprised to see the site like this. But then i realized you have shifted to wordpress. Great going, I was gonna tell you, you should have done that long time ago.
You should install a few plugins like Platinum SEO pack and WP Greet Box.
Thanks, I have been working on it for a long time! I do use those plugins or equivalent. I think it will take a few days for Google to re-index my site and for everything to work properly.
Thanks for the advice!
Congrats on the new site…looks very clean and friendly. I like how it was lauched only five days after the start of Spring. 😉
I love springtime 🙂 I like that timing too. Thanks!
Wow, great new site Darya! I haven’t clicked around much yet, but from the look of things I think I am really going to like your sliding picture categories at the top for sorting through different posts- especially for the recipes, which I often don’t get around to right away but can’t find them later. Congrats!!!
Absolutely! It was bugging me that recipes could get so buried on the site. Be sure to use the category labels in the side bar and the tags at the bottom of each post as well.
Darya, I’m loving this news site! What a GREAT resource for people. It looks so good, easy to navigate, very pretty, and most important….very useful. I’m loving it!!
Like everyone else Darya, love your site! How could anyone not?!
Hey Darya. Of course you know I love your site. Also just wanted to comment that I love your foodfeed/twitter feed, it make it so easy to see what you are eating, helps give me ideas. I just had an experience yesterday where I recommended your site to someone, and a big reason was because of the twitter feed: for a lot of us, its hard to know what eat, and its easy to get stuck in a rut; anyways, I’m glad you have that there, and I like checkin’ up on what you’re munching on!
I think the feed is very important, and I’m glad you like it. It gets to show in real life how I use all the wonderful things I buy. If you ever want a recipe for anything you see, I am happy to pass it along (even if it isn’t a post).
Thanks!
Hi Darya, finally found your blog again! Congratulations, things look good!
Thank you! Welcome!!
