New layout

Hey ya'll.  I've changed the layout of the bog because the old one was driving me crazy. I still don't LOVE this layout, but it's better than the last one.  Anyone out there a designer who wants to help me make my blog look better?  I could use all the help I can get.

Also take note that a search bar has been added as well as a way to email me directly.  Alex has been helping me and she thought that they would be nice additions.  I totally agree. 

So, comments on the newness?  Leave them for me!

P.S. I begin Phase 2 on Valentine's Day.  Blenderized soup, mashed potatos and cottage cheese, HERE I COME!  :-)
