A Few of My Favorite Foodies!

There comes a time in any blogger's life when she feels as though she needs to give a shout-out to the bloggers who inspire her.


This is one of those times.


I follow a lot of foodies.  A lot.  A whole lot.  I also follow many people who don't focus exclusively on food but whose recipes, photography, and general attitude towards the craft of creating good food inspire me.


Paula at Bell'Alimento is one of those bloggers.  I pester her constantly.  I'm always calling her names like "temptress".  I complain that she's leading me down dark roads, what with her drool-worthy photos of delectable dishes.  As if that wasn't enough, she now has an entire site dedicated to her obsession with Nutella (seriously, don't click on that if you're on a diet).  Paula, I love you, you're a sweetheart, but you're killing me.  Just so ya know.


Another such fantastic blogger is Katie over at This Chick Cooks.  I first noticed Katie when we linked to a lot of the same foodie blog parties - I was always stumbling across her lovely photos, her delicious looking recipes, and was always impressed.  Finally it occured to me that - duh - I should just become a follower of her blog so I could keep up with the craziness - she's a very prolific blogger with lots of awesome looking goodies, and I wouldn't want to miss one.


Then there's Kristan of Confessions of a Cookbook Queen - another blogger I pester.  Not only does she create some of the most outrageous bits of heaven I've ever laid eyes on (not to mention crazy stuff like Angry Birds cupcakes), but she's completely hysterical to boot.  It's much easier for me to not die of jealousy over someone else's talent when they're funny and relatable.  Kristan manages this quite well.


Alissa over at 33 Shades of Green isn't exclusively a food blogger, but I've had the pleasure of linking up with her Tasty Tuesdays blog hop and let me tell you, this girl can cook and photograph up a storm.  She's also a crafty gal, which I envy the heck out of.  Visiting her blog is a delight and an inspiration every single time.


There you have it.  Just a small handful of my favorite food gals.  Who are your favorite bloggers?
