  I have a website built on a blog template. http://bare-eats.com/ Now I would like to add and actual blog to it. I have a blog button in the header navigation but it doesn’t connect to the blog. I already made a first post in the blog, but I have no idea how to get to it, rather then through the administrator panel in the dashboard. http://bare-eats.com/2012/07/30/summer-pepperonata-and-chilled-beaujolais/
  I’m sure the solution is very easy, but I’m very new to WordPress and would really appreciate your help with it. Thank you.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Howdy,

  You’ll need to set a posts page at Settings -> Reading.

  Your Posts page should just be a blank page, and will automatically populate with your recent posts.

  Once you create a Posts page, you can add it to your custom menu:
