delurking day

12 January 2011, 23:55

Hey dudes it’s around that time of year again! DELURKING DAY! To all my awesome readers out there thanks so much for reading my crazy ramblings! I love sharing parts of my day with my ‘invisible’ friends but now I have a favour to ask you all: please, if you’re lurking, come on out and say hi! Leave me a comment, ask me a question or tell me what you’d like to see in 2011- I would love to hear from you! Are you guys mainly in Sydney or other parts of Oz, or even overseas? If you’ve got a blog feel free to post your url. Please note, you need to click the preview button first, and then hit submit.

Also if you are able to, help those who are affected by the Queensland floods by donating to the Premier’s Flood Relief Appeal here

i would like to meet an awesome person like you in person over good food ^^

De-lurking from Toronto. I like to think of you as my fabulous Australian girlfriend that I live vicariously through! I love your restaurant reviews and your journeys with your hubby!

— claire Jan 13, 09:38 AM #
Hi Suze! I’m guilty of lurking! :P I’m from South Syd! Keep up the good work! The thing I really like about your blog is that not only you put great food in but you also put beautiful faces to what I’m reading! Which is great compared to other food blogs where theres only pictures of food!
— Von Jan 13, 09:50 AM #
hey suze! majority of the time i lurk but also comment every now & then, hehe…
small world – my brother is good friends with jason, who i believe works with noods?
i’ll probably start a blog when i go travelling as a scuba instructor in June, calling it eat.travel.dive!!
keep up the awesome blog! =D
— Winnie Jan 13, 09:51 AM #
Yep… I lurk like the sneakiest piece of belly button lint. But read as a regularly as…someone with a very fibre-rich diet?
So hiiiiii! I think you kick ass! Visit Canberra and come eating with me :)
— Lizzi Jan 13, 10:17 AM #
So I’m not a lurker really (though I should comment more), but I just wanted to say I love this idea for a blog post!

— Rommy Jan 13, 11:13 AM #
Hi I am from Perth. Probably only been lurking for 6months, but loved your wedding photos – fantastic ideas you had! You definitely inspire the desire to try different foods!!
— Kim Jan 13, 11:21 AM #
Hey! A melbournite here, love reading all the foodie musings. Just a suggestion – if you ever find yourself in Melbourne – organise a chocolatesuze dinner – i’m sure you wouldn’t find yourself short of people wanting to chat!
— Pip Jan 13, 11:39 AM #
Hi Suze! I’m from Sydney. Love your blog. Don’t really have my own (apart from tumblr)! I emailed you a while ago telling you about naughty people who were stealing your pics.

— Jules Jan 13, 11:45 AM #
Hi :D
I’m Cate – from New Zealand.
I’ve been reading your blog for… I think just over a year. I’m pretty sure I’ve commented at least once… but not enough to have become a non-lurker!
I have a semi-cooking blog ‘Carry On Cooking’ which has suffered over the summer from lack of updates.
— Cate Jan 13, 11:48 AM #
Hi waves
— reality raver Jan 13, 11:52 AM #
Hi Suze! As long as there’s chocolate I’m happy :D
— Sheena Jan 13, 11:54 AM #
Do I count as a lurker? XD
— Violet Jan 13, 12:00 PM #
I am delurking myself! I’ve lived in Sydney for 10 years and enjoy reading your blog for all the Sydney sites and eateries. I recently moved to Singapore but still like to hear what’s happening back in Sydney land :)

I can’t remember how I found your blog but I love the surprising things you come up with like watermelon keg and chocolate cupcake case. No pressure or anything but they are freaking hilarious and exactly what I need to wind down. x) p.s. Im also stalking shez’s blog in the hopes she will post her bakkwa recipe :p hint hint.
— ant Jan 13, 12:05 PM #
Hello!!
I’m a recently new Lurker, I found you while googling Nutella and fell so inlove with your blog that I forgot why I was looking for Nutella in the first place and spent the afternoon reading back on your entries!

Hope you have a fabulous 2011 – I’ll be lurking

Hey Suze!

I’ve commented before, but I’ve been lurking for a while. Still reading, still enjoying! Moving to Sydney in April so might be able to enjoy some of the places you’ve been to again…

What do I want from your site in 2011? The same as what you’ve been giving us last year. Just keep it up!

Oh, and I’ve done my donation to the Premier’s fund for QLD. please everyone else, if you haven’t done it yet, please consider it, even if it is only $1. You don’t have to be in Australia to donate.

Cheers

— MissDV Jan 13, 08:12 PM #
I’m from Sydney and I started lurking at the end of last year. I love reading your blog because you are such a fun person – I think no matter where you are and what you’re doing, you would find a way to have fun!
I recently saw the little video of yours and Nood’s wedding – so so cute!!
I look forward to reading more of your posts, but to be honest I wouldn’t eat much of the food you do – I also know the reasons why it’s bad for us! :)
— Margaret Jan 13, 09:34 PM #
Hi Suze,
I’m from Sydney. Been lurking for a year, love your posts and all the pictures of food. Your wedding looks awesome, your lollypop bouquet is fab! :)
— Serene Jan 13, 09:51 PM #
Hi from Orange, NSW. I have been reading your blog around the same time I started my own blog. I admire your confidence in front of the camera and thanks for sharing snippets of your life with us – your invisible friends. :D
— Emily from FFC Jan 13, 10:04 PM #
Hey Suze!! I’m from sydney and i have to say i’ve been a lurker since 2009 =) i would like to see more of the wacky ideas you have, theyre awesome!!!

Hi Chocolatesuze! I love your blog and your wacky recipe ideas. I’m hoping to recreate your watermelon contraption for alcohol for my 21st birthday!
— jess Jan 13, 10:49 PM #
Hi Suze,

Have been reading your blog for a while now, it’s great fun – I’m in Sydney. How on earth do you stay so slim and eat so much ? :)
— Stefanie Jan 13, 11:07 PM #
Hi Suze, I’m a lurker and a stalker!!! I’ve bought biscotti from your mum at eveleigh, gawked at you at mosman markets, and been reading your blog since 2005! You are (no bull) the first ever “foodblog” that I’ve come across. I still remember googling for a nice spot to take my bf for his birthday – he is now my husband – and came across your review for Alio. Keep doing what you’re doing and maybe one day I’ll have the guts to say hi in person. :) xox
— Kat L. Jan 13, 11:08 PM #

Well, then… de-lurking from Berlin.
Hi there and keep doing as you do. I like your restaurant reviews too. I will be in Sydney by the end of the year and they are helping me to prepare for the big feast! ;-)
— Noema Jan 13, 11:48 PM #
Hi Suze!
I’m from Sydney and I’ve been lurking for the past year or so. I like reading your posts on random food products (e.g. bacon in a can). Would love to see more of those in 2011.
— Natalie Jan 13, 11:49 PM #
Hi! I have been lurking only for about 4-5 months now, but yours was one of the first food blogs that I came across (I am late with the whole blog thang). I love your blog as it is always so fun and I love how you use silly words like NOM NOM NOM, how you love the word moist (MOIIISSST!!!) and all the weird and wonderful things you do like your ice cream bath, noodle and burger eating competitions, and esp the breafast you cooked for Noods with the smiley face. heh heh! your blogs always put a smile on my face. Thanks a million.
— Natasha Jan 14, 12:32 AM #
I like reading your blog and have been lurking for a while now. Absolutely loved your wedding theme :) hope you have a great year!

Well, first of all, hi! I’ve been reading your blog for about half a year now (yes, I know, not long…) and you’re my favourite food blogger. You even inspired me to make my own. :]
— anna Jan 14, 04:06 AM #
As a canberran currently lurking from Paris, I love your blog for reminding me of all the amazing food (and ingredients! Brown sugar, where art thou?) we have back home!.. Although buttery goodness and macarons are sliding in a close second, om nom :P
— ajume Jan 14, 05:47 AM #
hey suze :) I came across your blog when I was staying in Sydney in December but I live in Auckland. Now i’m a daily lurker haha Your blog sent me on a crazy hunt for macarons, too bad Zumbo’s was closed over the holiday period ): i love reading all your crazy delicious recipes! hope you had a great new year x
— Eli Monroe Jan 14, 11:02 AM #
Hello! I have been reading your blog for a while. I’m currently in Canberra.

Hi,
I am a long time reader, first time commenter. Just have to say you are so awesome u make my eyes spout rainbows (so intensely intense) and gummi bears when I read your blog. It is almost like I am riding a magical unicorn of hope and then falconed in the face with deliciousness. Keep up the good work!

PS you are bacon personified
PPS I have tried unicorn meat… it tastes like reading this blog

Hi Suze!

Yes, I confess to being a very bad lurker…forgive me?

Love your work, and most of all your outlook and sense of humour, keep it up!

I’m on the Gold Coast, lately of Melbourne and before that Canberra. I’m not loving the food scene here on the GC, so I love seeing what I’m missing out on back in the more civilised parts of the country, food wise.
— Jackie Jan 15, 08:33 PM #
Hi from Sydney! I confess, I have read through your entire archives (hope this doesn’t make me sound too freakish) and often refer to your blog when suggesting places to friends. I love your quirky style!
