Avenue Food


Blog Name: Avenue Food
URL: http://www.avenuefood.com/
Owner: Sarah Kiino
Description: Avenue Food features lively writing and tasty original recipes from two people who eat more than they should, drink more than they should, and spend way more than they should (but only on eating and drinking). One of those people -- Sarah's husband -- doesn't actually do any of the writing, but he's great with the eating and drinking part. They live in the boonies of New York City--Queens, to be precise.

In the Bloglight Notes:
Whatever your food desires are, chances are Avenue Food has got you covered. Whether it's Spicy Scallop Burgers, taking on the what wine should you cook with debate or even restaurant reviews featuring local neighborhood haunts, this one won't disappoint.

De Dicto

Blog Name: De Dicto
URL: http://www.dedicto.blogspot.com
Owner: Anonymous
Description: Aesthetica, Metaphysica, & Obiter Dicta. "Reflections on the artworld -- notably, music, theatre, and the visual arts. This includes lists, notices, links, and images: a commonplace book of sorts. From time to time, I review work that I think is important or interesting. Occasionally, I discuss matters philosophical. And even less often, I rant about matters political. So drop in from time to time, and I'll do my best to point out some things that aren't being pointed out, to say some things that aren't being said, and to reiterate some things
that aren't being said loudly enough."

In the Bloglight Notes: A fairly new blogger on the scene, De Dicto is a little bit 'o everything. Whether it's taking on politics, robots or film clips, you'll use every part of your noggin' reading this one.

Owner: Bill Lengeman

Weird Eats is your guide to the world of offbeat, strange and wonderful foodstuffs, news, and whatever else we turn up along the way. There's a big wide world of weird eats out there and we hope to explore as much of it as possible.

Weird Eats is definitely a fitting name for this website. Whether it's news on a Spam cookoff, a wedding dress fashioned from lollipops or the ketchup cookbook, you're sure to find something odd, or perhaps slightly comforting, here.
