Hi there, dear friends.
It’s me Joy.
I’m the girl that writes this blog. Yea… hi. Me. Right.
For the last three months, I’ve been working on a big project. Today. Today Today Today is the day that this project grows wings and flies away into the Internet. That’s happening. Right now.
I’d like to introduce you to Homefries.
Homefries is a network of four podcasts. Audio podcasts. For your ears. There’s a video with details and such.
Before you watch the video and explore Homefries, let me tell you more. Seriously… this is some good business.
A podcast is like an independent Internet radio show. It’s tailored just for you… especially if you like things like Joy the Baker, wine, mom stuff, and entertaining.
Homefries. The podcasts:
There’s the Joy the Baker podcast with Tracy from Shutterbean. Tracy and I talk about everything that you want us to talk about. Boys, cameras, baking, kids, marriage, blogs, candy bars, cats, cutting boards… we get really deep.
If our podcast were to be described in a still photo, it might look something like this. Something exactly like this.
You know Tsh from Simple Mom, right? She is the best. Literally. THE BEST. Tsh has a podcast on Homefries. It’s called the Simple Mom Podcast. She talks with other moms from around the blogosphere (don’t like that word) about cool mom stuff. Organizing, intentional living, travel, marriage, balance. Really wonderful. Just lovely.
The Crush is a podcast about wine. But… it’s totally wine talk that you can understand! Listen, I’m not a wine girl. I mean… I’m really good and drinking wine, but if you want to talk about tannins and regions and varietals… um, I’m going to blank stare you. But The Crush! I listen and totally sound like a wine girl when I repeat the things that I learned. Major.
and
The Table Set is a podcast with three gentlemen food bloggers: Andy, Greg, and Nathan. They talk about parties, and how to throw them, and how to stay classy, and how successfully mix beer into your margarita. All extremely valuable information. Trust me. Your summer will thank you.
So how do you listen to a podcast?
Well… you can listen to a podcast on Homefries in a player like the one above. When you’re on Homefries, you can check out the show notes too. You can also download a podcast on Homefries.
Or! You can go to iTunes and subscribe to each podcast. The shows will automatically download onto your ipod, your fancy phone, or your computer We’ll be all up in your ears as you drive to work, waste time at work, fold laundry, run on the treadmill, bake in the kitchen… do it!
We want to be where you are… in podcast form.
Homefries is the creation of me… you know me… Joy the Baker, and my friend Michael. Michael knows all sorts of important things about cameras, audio, video and computer stuff. I know all sorts of important stuff about cinnamon, sugar, butter, and blueberries. We make a pretty good team.
We made this for you. It’s important to us. We really hope you like it.
You all have been so wonderfully supportive of my work here for the past few years… this is something new. This is something big. Please let me know what you think… because it matters.
Love!
Maggie
The crush podcast doesn’t work anymore :((
Crystal
Hello ladies!
I was curious what jobs you two have? Are they jobs in the food business?
Have either of you thought about starting your own bakery/restaurant?
Also, I wanted to know if your blog conference for next year would be open to the public, and if so, how can people find more information on it?
Kimberly
I was listening to the first installment of the Joy the Baker podcast while I ran some errands today and when I left Trader Joe’s, I magically had a carton of chocolate covered sunflower seeds and a bottle of bourbon in my bag. Just thought you should know that if your other listeners are as susceptible to the power of suggestion as I am, you and Tracy might be able to take over the world. ;)
Rachael
LOVE the podcasts!!!! I am currently on day 3 of a 3 day cross country driving adventure and the podcasts helped keep me awake through GA. Neighbor cars may have thought I was a bit possessed because of the way I was laughing out loud at times! I can’t wait to listen to more!
ginny lee
loved your podcast! listened in the car with my 19 year old. totally loved the sunflower hat story, I can relate. looking forward to episode 2!
Megan
Joy,
I have been following your blog for a little while now and have tried a few very successful recipes (I am eating a breakfast of baked oatmeal as we speak). Loved the podcast! I had to share with you the only way to eat Peeps… roasted over a campfire! Peeps are disgusting, vile blobs until they magically get transformed over a fire. The sugary outside gets kinda caramelized and forms a thin shell over the melty marshmellow inside. It was a serendipitous accident a few years back when we had a campfire near Easter and had no other marshmellows in the house. Keep up the great work!
joythebaker
you are so right about roasted peeps!
Kendra
Joy. Oh, Joy. This is GREAT. I’ve seen hints that you and Tsh were hanging out on Twitter and such, and to now see why? Fabulous. I used to obsessively read (and write my own) food blogs, but now that I’ve added a kid (with another one on the way) to my life and after I read Tsh’s book (irony), I decided to simplify my life. I shut down My First Kitchen, I sold off most of my food photography props, and now I do the mom thing and cook dinner for my family without having to take photos first. But I miss it. On certain days, I really do miss it. And I can’t obsessively read like I used to since every ounce of free time is occupied with dirty dishes and sleep. But a PODCAST?! From such amazing people on such lovely topics? I can listen while I chase my kid chasing bees in our front yard. While I wash those dishes. While I drive to the grocery store for the umpteenth time because I can’t remember to make a shopping list much less what might be on it. I’m so excited for you, for this, and for the many people who get exposure to you and to these others folks in a new way. Bravo. I am officially a subscriber and can’t wait to start listening.
joythebaker
Kendra!! Thank you so much for the lovely comment! I miss your blog, but I love knowing that you’re thriving in family life! Congratulations! Big hugs!! Yay! I hope I can make your dirty dish washing just a bit more enjoyable. Love!!
lauren
FYI: tried and true vegan hot cross buns from vegandad.blogspot.com
Vanessa
This…is…AWESOME!!! You two crack me up, God’s gold made me giggle! Keep up the great work.~V
Joyce
I love homefries and your voice is damn nice to listen to :D
Jenny
Dear Joy,
First off, I may just be one of those “lurkers”… You know, one who reads the blog religiously but seldom comments. Well. I worked for a large “culture” blog for several years, and we had podcasts too, so here are my comments:
– I liked the fact that the podcast was about you, Joy the Baker, rather than a baking tutorial. People enjoy knowing that writers behind awesome blogs like this one are real.
– I liked that you referenced specific posts or details from your blog that connected with your readers / listeners.
– I felt there were some “rant-y” parts… For example, while the camera talk may have been informative, the talk about peeps just went on for way too long and was repetitive. To improve on this, think of your podcast as a radio show. You don’t want the listeners to get bored and change stations! One way to make sure you stay on topic is to make an outline beforehand, and delegate a certain amount of time to the different subjects. (The podcasts were around 37min… I’m sure you can think of parts that could’ve been edited out, to get down to 30min of more “dynamic” content.)
– Referencing real-life episodes (like the one about your aunt and her pecan pie) is always a nice touch. Again, it lets your listeners connect with you better.
Keep up the good work!
lauren
as a professional producer with a journalism degree emphasizing in online media, i agree with jenny’s constructive critique. the editing for these podcasts should have been tighter for the content presented. the content itself was enjoyable (love the pecan pie and laying down of the horn bits) and could have been more so had the delivery been more structured. you mentioned that you look to google analytics to gauge how to improve your blog based on what did and didn’t work for others. you might consider doing the same for your podcasts. i recommend subscribing to this american life and the sound of young america. they aren’t food/mom/wine/party based but demonstrate the element of good storytelling, which is universal and crucial to all mediums. good luck with everything!
KR
Podcast = t-rex hugs. Hilarious but made with love!
I loved the peeps recipe its so true stale peeps just taste the best. Absolutely the best who needs cookies and cake when we have stale peeps!
What is up with the teasers for next week and no follow through? I was totally stoked to hear about other blogs you and Tracey Shutterbean enjoy ohhh and I wanted to hear about you freaking or not or totally freaking about turning 30.
Please no teasing :)
Helene Mahnken
Dear Joy,
The podcast?
Win.
Love, love, love it. Would it be weird if I said I listened to it in the shower? I did… Sorry if that’s weird. Thanks for the laughs, dude :). Totes.
Whitney
love. Love. LOVE! Your podcasts made drawing floorplans SO much more enjoyable this a.m. Except that I really wished I was in fact enjoying a bourbon on the rocks- even if it was 10am :)
Jenny Shaw
Listened to the podcast and all it made me want to do was bake and eat. Success? I think so.
Sarah-Anne
awesome, joy!!
Patricia
I’m so excited about this! Thank you, Joy :)
Shauna
I love it! It’s so good to listen too. I’m sure I look like an idiot walking down the street with random giggles happening.. Totes all your fault! But so worth it. Thanks for the afternoon giggles!
Darcee
Just listened to the first one in it’s entirety while perusing mindless websites….love it!!! Keep it up, you two are hilarious.
Karleen
The morning I set off for a cross-country road trip you announce this podcast and it was the BEST thing that could have happened. You kept me very entertained through the state of Kansas. Congrats on making it in the top 10 on iTunes! You should try the Baked! recipe for Blondies. They are one of the best things I have ever made :-)
Molly
the podcast! so good! I loved the five questions at the end you should do that every time!
Erin
Sunflowers?! Obsessed! Me too! I would steal my sister’s fragrance but she would always catch me due to the fact that I smelled like a delicious, beautiful sunflower child. Congrats on the podcast! So much fun to hear your voice!
erin
joy!! i absolutely loved your podcast. love love love. i also listened while riding the bus and laughed out loud like a crazy person. ha! please do lots more k thanks.
Michelle B.
I have already listened to episode 1 and 2 and loved them both!! Can’t wait for more, but fair warning they’re going to make you laugh and if you ride a bus like I do you will look crazy! Good times. :-)
what katie's baking
congratulations on doing the coolest thing EVER!!
awesome, joy!!!
Mary Ellen
Love love love the podcasts – I immediately told my sister (who also loves you!)
And thanks for introducing us to several other funny, talented, creative and charming people. I subscribed to the Crush podcast and loved it so much and giggled at work through the Table Set.
This is the bomb!
Katie
I am an intertubes nerd, but I’ve never listened to a podcast. However. I will be listening to these. I like mom stuff, and wine, and also home and fries AND homefries. Can’t wait!
Bewtiching
Just DL your podcast and went for a run. I know I am not the only runner out there thinking about food, but I might have been the only runner out there today listening to food bloggers. I loved it and even laughed out load a few times! Thanks!
joythebaker
i love this!
Pip
congrats! this is so fun–I’ll definitely be signing up.
Marisa
I love it! I’m so excited! I’m subscribing to Simple Mom, too, even though I’m not a mother. Her organizational skills are enviable.
Patti
Love it! I now have another way to kill time at work. Thank you Joy!
Ida R.
I love listening to podcasts while working out and driving to work, so thank you for giving me another to subscibe to. It’s nice to put a voice to the blog/face. I just listened to episode 1 and I love it! Keep them coming!
Katy Vella Pace
Loved the video. Someone in t.v. land ought to snap you up!

KW
I LOVE it … I just listened to one podcast and it was great!! Your project in a word: awesome!
Keely
I love this! I was so excited to be able to listen to your podcasts at work yesterday while I was killing time/waiting for work to do. You are awesome and have inspired me to start my own blog! kraftykeely.tumblr.com. There isn’t anything posted yet, but I have plans for my first post already, just need some time to do it :)
You’re the best!
Meagan @ Scarletta Bakes
Congrats on your new venture, Joy!
I can’t wait to get some HomeFries into my ears.
lisa g
loved your podcasts! really, especially the 5 questions. i had them on while i sewed a bit before work this morning and it was a wonderful start to my day– keep them coming!
Lauren
loved the podcast, joy! your voice is just as i imagined – i was actually surprised! looking forward to having you 2 entertain me at work and while cooking dinner at home!
Baking Serendipity
Joy! I listened to your first podcast this morning while I was flat ironing my hair. I love it! Post more so I can listen during other mundane chores…like the dishes, which are never-ending at my house :)
dawn
I’m in the UK, I had to google Peeps, I was like ‘what are these????’ – They look like I wouldn’t like them, I only like chocolate on marshmallow when it is all melted and hot, in a fondue fashion :) I like your blog and your podcast very much – ta very much :)
Janet
Why would anyone want to hear your grating, annoying voice? Get over yourself. Bring in the real charmer… JILL.
joythebaker
hahahaa! you’re so funny. have you considered ignoring my blog and reading jill’s instead? you should.
Katie
Janet,
You suck…I hope you get the runs!
Joy…keep being you because you’re the cat’s meow, the bees knees and everything fabulous!
joythebaker
katie, you should never wish the runs upon anyone. that’s just not right. (but thanks)
Katie
:D
ginny lee
the only thing worse than getting the runs is getting the runs while you are running—so we could wish for that :)
I love your homie/homey podcast style—it’s like hanging out with friends, and if you are worried about this then you should check out the nerdist podcast and also spilled milk podcast–they use the conversational style to great effect. keep up the good work. don’t worry about the haters!
MissLissa2323
Ummm… Janet is it? You are lame. What’s the point in being so rude? Move along now…try to go find a life.
On a side note: Love the podcast Joy:o) funny stuff!
Courtney
I heart you Joy! LOVE the podcast and your blog! I have been a lerker, so I feel obligated to post :)
Frazer
I’m curious. I want to see the picture of that insanely small couch!! Maybe in the next post? Along with some stale peeps scattered on the couch and your cat eating/playing with the peeps? Do cats eat peeps/stale peeps?
The podcasts are awesome. It was good to finally put a voice to the face and words we have been reading!! Like completing a person in my imagination!!!
joythebaker
cat, couch, peep picture!? hahaha… a whole podcast in one photo!
shelle
congrats! On itunes now adding it to my podcast subscriptions!
lauren

You rock Joy! I thoroughly enjoyed your podcasts and I can’t wait for more!
Nicole @ The Dirty Oven
Hooray…love it! You have just made my commute to work so much better. The only thing that would make it even better would be a five day old peep! I have subscribed to the podcast!
Michele (A Savory Character)
I love it Joy….Congratulations. I’ve been a fan for a long time. Great Job!
Michele (A Savory Character)
I love it Joy….Congratualations. I’ve been a fan for a long time. Great Job!
yeni
Congrats on the new project. Sounds like something worth listening to while I’m at work bored to tears running reports and such. This will def help provide some entertainment.
bodavian
I really enjoyed the podcasts! Your voice sounds exactly as I imagined it, no surprises. Sometimes it can be shocking if a person’s voice doesn’t fit with your preconceived ideas of how sounds. You know? You are so personable and relatable and fun!
Kat @ Cupcake Kat
So cool! I can’t wait to listen to all of your podcasts
kate
Love love love love love it!!! This news made me happy and smiley and generally feel awesome for you. Congrats and can’t wait to start listening.
Dawn
So glad I checked your blog this morning!
The podcast made my day at work so much more entertaining. I’m sure my coworkers were wondering why on earth I was laughing so much while doing data-entry.
Can’t wait for the next one!
Aundra (fitforlife)
Joy, this is awesome! I can’t wait to start listening. Congratulations on your fresh ideas and continued success! You deserve nothing short of the best.

OMG OMG OMGOMG! Totally subscribed immediately. Downloading them all now (hurry up you darn slow computer!) I am so excited!
Rebecca in STL
Listened to a segment on my walk this morning. Love it!
Rebecca in STL
PS: I love that you use iPhoto and have occasional typos! And the warm color non-matching look is way less intimidating than cool colors and b/w.
Henna
This is so great!
Victoria
You should know, I read your blog daily…Seriously, I like the way it looks way to much to subscribe in google reader, so I end up coming by *several* times a day to see if you’ve made a new post yet.
I don’t comment because I see that you get so many other comments and figured the last thing you really wanted to do was have one more to read.
With this post, I had to listen to the podcasts. I’ve already listened to both of your podcasts! It was fun and I’m happy to know another person who things stale peeps are the best peeps and that sunglasses on the back of the head are simply wrong.
I’m glad there are other podcasts and I’ll probably give them a listen sometime. But really, Joy the Baker is where it’s at.
So, thanks Joy. For baking, for blogging, for taking pictures…And now, for podcasting.
Julie
I’m totally not a podcast person, and I love this! I could listen to you and Tracy do you NPR impressions all day. :) When do I get more?
A Little Coffee

sheila @ Elements
How exciting for you! What a neat venture for you and your friends!! I can’t believe the networks didn’t pick up your television pilot! You guys would have had the number one show of the year! Everyone would be watching, including me! It’s their loss for sure, but I, for one, won’t be surprised to see you on television or in a film one day. It’ll happen…just you wait and see. :) Anyway, Home Fries looks like a lot of fun! I couldn’t get the video to work, but I’ll try it again later. :) Congratulations! :)
Justeen @ Blissful Baking
This is really cool! Congrats, Joy!

katy from DiningwithDusty
This is so exciting! Am always looking for new podcasts and this one, based on how much I enjoy your blog, is sure to be awesome! The mundane task of folding towels and doing dishes needed something like this.
Jen of My Tiny Oven

Maybe one day you’ll have a show on the Food Network (like Giada, my favorite!) and then you’ll be on Oprah and and and…
Congrats!
Danae (The Busty Baker)
Loved the podcasts! I listened to both of yours last night and can’t wait until more come out! It’s great to actually have a real voice to match with your blog “voice” when I read them in my head now!
joythebaker
Exactly!! Thanks for listening!!
Kerry Anne Eisenach
OH!!!!!!!!!!!!! This makes me want to run around in circles, or clap my hands…ooo there is a great puddle in the parking lot at work…I am going to go dance and jump in that puddle.

Averie (LoveVeggiesandYoga)
Congrats, Joy!! This is awesome and the bloggers you’ve teamed up with are all new to me so this is even more awesome…discovering new talent whom are all friends and awesome ladies, no doubt, since you’ve teamed up with them.
Don’t know how you could keep this a secret and not want to blab and shout it from the hills but im glad you have now.
Congrats :)
Ali
well this is frickin’ awesome. I’m on my way over there now!
Charlotte au Chocolat
Sounds AMAZING!!! I have to leave the house soon, so I’m going to refrain from heading over to download the podcasts right this minute, but that’s the first thing I’ll be doing when I get back home tonight! Wishing you lots of luck with this! Also- go you, for putting yourself out there. You’re just awesome!
joythebaker
Download! Download! Listen. Listen.
Charlotte au Chocolat
I just did, and you’re just too cute.
Megan
Joy! I have the same problem with blondies. I made pumpkin blondies and I was so excited about them and they never ever cooked either. !?
joythebaker
What is our issue!?
Dana@TheSundaySweet
Wow! This looks so cool! I’m excited to see what it’s all about.
Catherine
Ahhhh!!! And I thought this Monday was going to be exciting because 1) a coworker (whom I adore) that retired is visiting and 2) I baked her your Oatmeal Blueberry Applesauce Muffins to enjoy! You have given my Monday a whole new dimension of excitement! Wahaha. I can barely contain myself.
The Blue Bandana
I am SO EXCITED!! My daughter is addicted to your blog just lile her mommy. She is going to love this as much as I do!! Oh, and thank you for your advice for turning 21 – some of them apply to 16 year olds, and sometimes 16 year olds listen to other people more easily than they do their mommies.
joythebaker
I totally get it re: advice for 16 year old. Also. I hope you like the podcasts!!
Kimber-Leigh
congrats joy! what an exciting new venture…can’t wait to have a bit of time this afternoon to check it out!

Just worked out that my work it blocking it because it’s flagged as internet radio. I’ll download at home
joythebaker
Work is LAME! Sorry.
Gigi
I love your blog and shutterbean SO MUCH. They’re the two foodie blogs I check every day, and I had no idea you guys know each other. So excited. But I just listened to your podcast and realized I’m one of the “lurkers” so… here’s a comment. Hope it helps the ego of your secret inside competitive self :)
joythebaker
Un-lurked!!! Thank you!
Stephanie
You sound exactly like I thought you would XD
joythebaker
Yay?
Ernestine
Obviously doing something wrong. Can’t access. I’ll keep trying.

Sam Hill
Hi Joy,
Is anyone else having problems downloading through itunes? I can subscribe to each of the podcasts but when I try to download itunes gives a message saying that authorisation is needed from the homefries site.
Any ideas?
Sam
Vanessa
I love yours and Tracy’s podcast. I listened to both of them already, I’m hooked! It’s so fun to listen to you guys talk about blogging and food and such. Makes me want to meet you guys even more!
Heather (Heather's Dish)

elisha ;)
SO excited about this Joy, and can’t wait to give it a listen! but please, oh please, don’t stop your lovely blog-posting and fantastic recipes…you have made me WANT to cook, for the first time in my life…and my husband’s tummy is most grateful! Also, I hope this won’t interfere with corresponding with your thousands of new penpals *hehe*…I’m looking forward to my crayon-drawn letter from Joy in a few years!
joythebaker
I can do it all!! Don’t you worry!
A Plum By Any Other Name
I just subscribed. As a podcast junkie and lover of your blog I couldn’t be more excited about it. Preparing dinner is about to get a lot more interesting …

Joy, I heard all the podcasts at work today. I actually ended up doing some pretty good work AND learning about wine, chicken, god’s gold etc. Well done!

oooh sounds lovely. I have just moved out of town and now have a serious daily commute, have been looking for something to cheer up my dates with the freeway. Can’t wait to get some of this on my ipod!
Lauren at Keep It Sweet

I look forward to listening to you Joy :-D I haven’t got a fancy schmancy listening thing and have no idea how to get it on my phone but I will ask my man who will probably know. He usually does!

Sounds fun Joy. I have limited internet access out here in the Kentish countryside (UK) but I will see if I can access it in some way. A lovely inventive idea. Are you still going to carry on with your blog though?? Because I love your food blog and so look forward to both your writing and your recipes. I started my own blog having read you and Crazy Aunt Purl. My blog is very small and new but I am learning all about blogs, interweb, photography, cooking, etc etc from people like yourself and Pioneer Woman so please don’t go just yet. I have so much more to learn.
