The Way the Cookie Crumbles

Okay, I know - gasp another food blog right in a row! It isn't my fault that I like food and I write when I'm hungry.

Anywho - The Way the Cookie Crumbles, has delicious inventive recipes that I've actually tried (sorry... no photos of the ugly dishes I concocted.) But I do have some yeast in my fridge... and maybe I'll make some of these English Muffins soon. I can't promise that my photos are going to be fantastic... my camera is a pink girly thing not a fancy SLR.

I have legitimately made this Vegetable Curry. It was easy and delicious. I fed off of it for an entire week and made my co-workers a little smellier for it.

Likes: Delicious looking food with step by step photos, which really help when you've never made anything like it before.

Dislikes: I could not for the life of me, figure out how to contact the blogger Bridget to ask her about her blog or photos. I enjoy food... but I like having a little information about the blogger's personal life as well.

Orangette

Orangette - a beautiful blog in a nutshell. Your basic food blog with great writing. I love the pictures and their polaroid likeness. I feel as though I'm not trendy enough to get away with making my photos polaroided. So I will simply have to just put in some of my favorite pictures from Orangette's blog:

Take these tomatoes for example - don't they look beautiful? I don't even like tomatoes that much and I want to eat these. And check out these French Macaroons:

Don't they look divine? I have yet to have a French Macaroon (how lower class of me... yes, I know). I promise to try one soon-ish. I hear they melt in your mouth and I always love sugary things that do that. Like Cotton Candy from a state fair.

Likes: She's a native of Oklahoma City (as am I) and moved elsewhere to make her life (ditto again). She has used her popularity online to make a book, have a column in a popular food magazine... and start a small restaurant. If I ever return to Seattle, I want to try it.

Dislikes: Now that she has her restaurant and is super busy with other important things... she doesn't blog as much.

*Update! I found out she actually uses Polaroids and not just a program to make them Polaroids.

Design*Sponge

Alright, let's start off on a good foot with one of my favorite blogs. When all other things on the internet are boring, uninteresting, or ugly, I can always trust Design*Sponge. Written by a young, hipster Martha Stewart, this blog covers super cute weddings, cards, re-finishing furniture and occasionally foodie things.

Honestly though? I don't check this blog but every few weeks when I can gorge on a 50+ posts at once.

Likes: Her wedding everything. Sample photos*:

Yes, creepy little people on top, but so simple and delicious looking WITHOUT fondant (disgusting stuff).

The entertainment - a banjo? Genius.

Her wedding was so great that she has five posts about it as seen here: Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four, Part Five

Dislikes: Sometimes I feel overwhelmed by the amount of posts in a day! And sometimes there is too much crafty stuff. I'm not a crafter, but I can appreciate small doses of it.
