Can you hear it?

"Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content."

~ Helen Keller

Well, my friends, the masses (all 94 of them...) have spoken, and  the vast majority has advised that while music may soothe the savage breast, silence does indeed seem to be golden.  Here's how the numbers ultimately stacked up:

No to the music - 65 (69%)
Yes to the music - 20 (21%)
Indifferent to the music -  9 (9%)

Clearly, the "Nos" have it.  Thanks to each and every one of you for opining on the subject - I appreciate all the comments left, pro and con.  The music is now gone.  Feel free to visit All That Splatters in peace and quiet.    

Now, on to the cooking!

Poll-taking: To Groove or Not to Groove, That is the Question...

First, let me say a big THANK YOU to everyone who visits All That Splatters.  I just adore the comments and suggestions I receive from all of you.  It's fun to share recipes and photos with fellow foodies!

Now on to the business at hand.  During the past (not quite) two years that I've been blogging, I have received 2 or 3 rather rude complaints about the music that streams through my blog.  Since they were not in keeping with the tone I try to maintain on my blog, I deleted them with very little fanfare (my suspicion is that they were from the same person).  By the same token, I have had some wonderful compliments on my choice of tunes.   However, I do realize that everyone has their opinion about such things, and so I thought I would provide a more kindly manner in which you may express yours.  There is a poll near the top of the page asking the big question.  Do you mind music on blogs?  Or would you rather peruse in peace?  I truly want to know and will abide by the majority.

So that is the question at hand:  To Groove or Not to Groove.  What are your thoughts?
