Have you got your seatbelt on for this leg of the Blog World Tour journey? Are you sure? Definitely got that belt on? Do you need me to come into the back and check? Oh-kay then!
I thought we might put a little foodie spin on our tour today, so let’s start at one of my favourite blogs – for food or otherwise…
Sophie at Local is Lovely is… well, lovely. I actually work with Sophie on Village Voices so I know she’s a total doll. She’s also funny and a little bit nutty, which is necessary, don’t you think? Soph lives on a venison farm out the back of Orange where she runs weekend luncheons from her farm kitchen. If you think that sounds like perfection, add in two cuties, a hardworking (not half bad) husbie, an upcoming book and it’s beautiful there. That’s one of Sophie’s images up there as my header. Go on over and meet Soph and I guarantee you’ll want to put your feet up and stop a while.
Clickety-click on Sophie’s blog roll brings me to…
Orangette! Now, Orangette is a well-known, seasoned blog – Molly has been writing since 2004. Her blog is a gentle tumble through one life in Seattle (and earlier, deliciously Paris – which is how I first met Orangette), interspersed with old-fashioned kind of recipes for things like Banana bread with cinnamon crumble topping or oatmeal pancakes . There is a quirkiness here that is totally addictive – read about Molly’s friend Rebecca and Rebecca’s gay husband here… I definitely did a double take and then thought, ‘how wonderful is that?’.
Molly has a page devoted to blogs she loves, and I click on over to…

I hope all bloggers consider having one. It’s the quickest way to really let people know what you’re into AND share some links around. x
