I have a WordPress.com blog but because I enjoy using WordPress in general I'm considering re-working my Dreamweaver site (http://www.galleygourmet.biz) using WordPress.org. Does anyone have experience doing this? If so, suggestions? I'm very code-experienced, but also code-weary and would love to go to templates.
Thanks!
Check out the codex.

You can try it out by installing it on a local web server to see if you're comfortable with it.
There's no easy way to do it. You're moving from a static dreamweaver built website to a dynamically driven site with content being stored in a database. IF you're code savvy you can modify WordPress however, you'd like to meet your needs. I suggest finding a template you like that is close to your current design and working from that.
