LINK: Food Blogs I Like

It seems like I am constantly stumbling across more and more food blogs. It makes it really hard for me to do things like work, and write my own food blog. Thank goodness for RSS readers, which help me manage my food blog reading time. Here are some food blogs recently added to my regular reads:

Sweetnick's: If you are a food blog reader, this one probably needs no introduction by me. Sweetnick's is already a very popular food blog, and I've heard quite a lot about it, but for some reason, didn't have it on my regular route. Well, now I do.

One of Cate's regular features is a blog event called "I'll Show You Mine, If You'll Show Me Yours" in which bloggers take pictures of whatever is called for ... event number one was the inside of your fridge, and event number two was your spice rack. Event number three will be your recipe file. It's really interesting to see these little parts of other people's food lives, especially since the pictures range over many different countries.


Shuna Fish Lydon: Second is a blog I was very excited to discover. Shuna Fish Lydon is a pastry chef who has worked at French Laundry, Citizen Cake, and Gramercy Tavern. As you can see, she has excellent credentials and resides in the Bay Area. It's always fascinating to read a chef's blog, although I get jealous when she posts about the cooking classes she is running that I cannot participate in. :(

RESTAURANT: Pinkberry

So I finally tried this famous (infamous?) yogurt shop that has begun the conquest of Los Angeles. The yogurt that is called "crackberry" by many. What the L.A. Times calls "the yogurt that launched a thousand parking tickets" due to the notoriously bad parking situation in its original location and its customers tendency to wait in lines for hours. It's the newest thing, taking the place of cupcakes, it seems. It's a rebirth of the frozen yogurt fad of the late '80s, but this time it's different. This yogurt is different. So, my lazy ass might be persuaded to go there, even though it's outside my 2 mile radius of things around my apartment. If it's really that good, I would go the extra .1 mile. But I would not go the extra .1 mile, AND have to go crazy trying to find parking AND then have to wait in life until my hairs turn grey. Nothing is that good. But now there's one I can walk to, and the line is not that long, so we decided to try...

LA.FOODBLOGGING: Groundworks Coffee

Our local foodblogging establishment, la.foodblogging , has seen fit to allow me to contribute. From now on most of my Los Angeles centered posts will be done there, and linked to from here, in order to avoid duplication. My first post is on my morningtime friend, Groundwork Coffee (as promised to Jeremy and my sweet Auntie). You can read it here: I'll Have the Works . Tags: LA.FOODBLOGGING

ABOUT THIS BLOG

I've been evaluating my blog and have realized that, while I have lots of nifty posts, I don't really have a good overall explanation of what exactly this blog is all about, and what one can expect to find here. So I'm creating this post and will link to it in the sidebar for anyone who's interested. I am not a professional chef. I have not been cooking for years. I am not an expert who is going to make beautiful and amazing and complicated dishes to "wow" you. I am, in fact, quite the opposite. I am a total beginner. I've always lived in places with miniscule kitchens and concerned myself with schoolwork and studying and working and not paid the least bit of attention to what I was eating every day. And that's what this blog is all about. It's about me learning where my food comes from, how to make it properly, and how to enjoy it to the utmost. It's no fun to learn by myself, so I started the blog to keep track of what I learn, kind of like a...
