Thursday Thirteen: (Mostly) Foodie Link Love
Lot's of controversy below, if that's your thing, but in the meantime, thought I'd take the Thursday Thirteen opportunity to share some great links and draw your attention to some worthy sites, thirteen even!
1) First of all for those of you who were fan's of Ali's Something So Clever - she's back - bigger and better than ever and with an adorable munchkin in tow! Ali was my inspiration to start this blog. I love her unpretentious approach to food and the photography is wonderful. Her new lair is at the beautifully designed Divine Domesticity. Check it out!
2) Beccy shares a hilarious foodie joke / cartoon here!
3) Barbara is making Challah - one of my favourites, but especially depressing to look at on Day 4 of the South Beach diet. MUST HAVE CARBS!!!!! This is a wonderful egg bread and so attractive with it's lovely plait/braid.
4) Rachel made a gorgeous looking Lemon and Lime Cream Tart. Looks divine. She also shares her favourite shortcrust sweet pastry recipe. Yum! Can you tell I'm fiending for carbs?
5) Despite what she says Tartelette is very evil for sharing this amazing looking recipe for Apple and Cider Beignets. If you don't read this blog, you should. Every single post makes my mouth water. I do not have the patience and attention to detail to be a pastry chef, but I sure can drool! ;-)
6) If you too are trying to be good for the New Year, check out one of my favourites, Ruth and well known food blogger, Kalyn for some wonderful South Beach / Low Carb recipes. Ruth's "Caulifried Rice" has been on my menu twice already this week. It really is tasty!
7) Don't forget to stop by Chez Pim tomorrow to see if you won anything in this year's Menu for Hope, if you entered!
8) Laura cooked up some incredible traditional gingerbread (the loaf kind) and as usual has me licking the screen. I really really really want to make this NOW, but will try and restrain myself. *SIGH*
9) We won't discuss my senseless hatred of zucchini / courgette, but for those of you who enjoy the dreaded stuff, check out Lorraine. In her usual conversational and Italian falir, she has whipped up a simple but wonderful looking zucchini soup. If I just squint and pretend it's asparagus! ;-)
10) Barb shares a wonderful freeze and bake chocolate chip cookie recipe. Always a handy item to have on hand!
11) Mandy has been crafting up a storm. Check out her beautiful distressed creations. I'm distressed just looking at them. How about a lesson on Saturday Mandy?
12) The Irish Blog Awards are looking for judges. Click here to find out more. Annie - I'm looking at you here!
13) Kieran at Ice Cream Ireland gives some wonderful advice on measurements and conversions - advice I am much too lazy to follow! ;-)
Now go forth anddrool browse!
