Forget About Chestnuts, I'll Take Peppermint Bark, please!

One of my followers on Twitter (you can follow me too, by the way!) mentioned that my tweets heavily feature holiday foods. And here is why: I love holiday food.

A blog I've been visiting regularly for my holiday-food-fix is The Red Deer. I look at the pictures of Alicia's peppermint bark, her iced lemon cookies, her white rocky road... and sigh.

So enjoy her lovely food pics and recipes (and clever writing!).

Pure holiday-food-joy.

One Reason Life is Delightful...

... is the amount of inspiring things on the internet. However, if you are a late-nighter like me, you may find yourself in the people-in-old-times-would-laugh-at-you-if-you-called-this-a-predicament predicament of reading the most delicious blogs when it is no time for being hungry or baking.

So without further ado:

The Top Six Food Blogs Not to Visit when You're Feeling Munchy at Midnight:*

1. Pâtisserie Natalie - Photos that will make your mouth water. And you'll wonder why, oh why you don't have this girl as your best friend/next door neighbor.

2. Simmer Till Done - Not only is this blog a deliciously fun and hilarious read, her recipes are amazing. I've never actually attempted any of her recipes but I can just tell.

4. Chaos in the Kitchen - For those of you who have less of a sweet tooth and prefer to not long for sumptuous, savory meals, do not look at this blog. You can practically smell the food cooking. And it smells gooooood.

5. Mostly Eating - This one may seem like it'd be less tempting as it's healthy and good for the environment. But don't let that fool you - the food is completely crave-worthy.

6. Tea & Cookies - Beautiful writing, beautiful photography. She can make purslane look like the food of the gods.

Extra Credit: Foodzie (not a blog) - I have yet to purchase anything from here but, really, a site that sells specialty food from everywhere? Really? Was that necessary?
