101 Cookbooks

101 Cookbooks seeks to explore the best recipes from the author's collection of cookbooks. The author, Heidi, is a cookbook author herself and really understands what a reader is looking for in the exploration fo a recipe. Not just how to make it, but why it works. If you're looking for some advice one which recipes to make from your dusty cookbook collection, you could do much worse than start here.

Sometimes a good idea

Sometimes you look at an idea that seems so simple, so straight forward you wonder why no one had thought of it before. It was that way for me with Goodiesblog.com. The blog sends out letters to manufacturers asking for free samples then reviews and rates the items they receive based on their 'significance' (although that term remains mostly undefined). The first item received -- a box of Old Orchard juices.

Free stuff just for writing. Now why didn't I think of that?

Spring Break

Yeah, I know technically it's not yet spring. But never the less I'm taking a vacation from blogging, email, and the like, until March 6th or 7th. Most of this time will be consumed with The Frost's Great American Roadtrip (tm) as we pick up from Las Vegas, NV (well Henderson really) and relocate to Orlando, FL.

It's going to be a ton of fun and I look forward to blogging it. One of my aims this trip is to only eat at places that are locally owned. I want to hit some of the best roadside food along the route and have been doing a lot of research to find the best.

I thank you for the time you've spent visiting FoodRelish and hope you'll return when I do. In the meantime do check out the RoadFood.com forums for the latest in roadside food information. It's been very useful in my research.

FoodRelish

Finding joy in one's life is always a crucial part of healthy living. For me cooking, fine dining, and sharing those wonderful moments with friends and family brings me plenty of joy. I have never really considered myself a particularly talented chef (although I've been told I am one) or a true gourmand (I'm not educated enough in the food arts), just someone who liked food. In today's parlance, that makes me a foodie; a title I'm not uncomfortable with.

At FoodRelish you will find all the aspects of food that I relish, including but not limited too, links to other wonderful foodblogs, pointers to online resources, restaurant reviews, lessons in cooking, cooking show commentary, and recipes. I am in the process of moving from Las Vegas to Orlando, so my reviews will tend to gravitate in that direction.

So for now, sit back, relax and pull up a chair as we proudly present... FoodRelish.

Merci.
