Some Blogs I'm Digging Right Now

This is just a list of what I am reading right now. Some of these are food blogs, and some of these are not (but they are separated for your convenience!). I really don't like blogs with obnoxious advertising or (worst of all!) music, and I do like blogs that update often! So this list may change from month to month. Don't see yourself on here? I'm always looking for great new blogs to read, and I might like to read yours! Shoot me a message introducing yourself and I would love to read you too, or, leave a comment linking back to your blog. I've found some of my favorite writers that way!
