I love food. But I suppose that isn’t the most profound statement ever uttered. After all, who doesn’t? Only trouble is, I’m not what you’d call a good cook. In fact, I’m more of an atrocious cook. But I’m enthusiastic and eager to learn, which is why I often find myself scrolling through food blogs drooling and moaning over the wide array of online food porn. I am constantly astonished as to how many foodies are out there willing to share their secrets and recipes with those of us novices who don’t know a whisk from a hole in the ground. And the photos! Oh, some of the photos are, themselves, delicious enough to eat. For those of you who may be interested, here are a few of my favorite foodies!
