This Week’s Best Food Post (IMO)

The first nomination is Italian Lentil & Chestnut Stew by Sophie, a nutritionist and registered dietician, who writes Mostly Eating in the U.K. I discovered Sophie’s blog this week because of a Facebook link posted by Gourmet Worrier in Malta. 


(I love that a blogger in Malta got a blogger in Florida to look at a blogger in the U.K. And I love that I finally saw something of value in the whole Facebook thing…just before I was ready to ‘pull the plug’). 

Anyway, I was immediately taken with this recipe and Sophie’s style of presentation. It’s a very interesting recipe, with a surprise ingredient.

This Week’s Best Food Post

(in my opinion)


I’m announcing a new event called This Week’s Best Food Post which, as I write this, is still in a nascent stage. Like many of you, there are lots of blogs in my Google Reader and I get quite a few via email as well. I scan them all – stopping here and there to read on or leave a comment. So I thought it would be fun to announce each week the one that most piqued my interest. Blogging, I’ve learned, is a lot about community and I’m hoping this event will have a twofold benefit: (1) to pass on some really good stuff you may have missed and (2) to perhaps help promote another blogger (whether they need or it not). Consider it in foodspeak ‘just desserts’ for a job done well.

I’m thinking weekly. I’m thinking no criteria…sometimes I’ll add a comment and sometimes I’ll just provide a link; some ‘winners’ will be based on creative cuisine, others for writing style or for photography – whatever speaks to me. Don’t forget, it’s IMO. And, it could be anyone from Mark Bittman of The New York Times…to you!

Coming soon.
