Award Season
I'm one of the last to mention this (ironically, since I was one of the judges), but Kate has posted the nominees for the 2005 food blog awards. It was extremely difficult to whittle the many nominees down to a mere five in each category. Sometimes it was difficult to pick a top 10! Food blogs have taken off, and there are many talented writers and photographers hanging out their shingles. We read through zillions of posts and looked at gajillions of photos. I for one added several new blogs to my RSS Reader. Look through all the nominees, and you will too. Go. Read. Vote. Support the food blogging community that brings you so much pleasure.
And if you're caught up in the blog award frenzy, go nominate your favorites for the Bloggies, the ultimate award for our chunk of the internets. They even have a food blog category, which they introduced last year. The more nominations a blog gets, the more likely it is to show up in the final round.
