Guest Posts & Posting

Know someone who loves food as much as you do--or even more? Dreaming of a recipe only your mom can make? Adore listening to a friend give restaurant reviews of the best brunch places in Durham? Get her (or him) to guest post for us!

Post it yourself or email it to me, and I'll happily post it. Please add a couple lines of intro just to give us a little context. My mom is supposed to be working on one, and the Jolly Holiday was roped in after describing some mouthwatering soul food on her blog (and then gave us a perfectly luscious post!). Remember, it can be anything food related. Anything.

A couple of ideas:

• Cheese and why it is so good
• Favorite foods and how they evolved over the course of your life
• Best restaurant (and the runner-up) in all of the cities you've lived
• Canning
• Salsa
• Favorite cookbooks
• Kitchen gadgets you'd rather not live without (Conversely, gadgets you see no need for except on bridal registries--for those of us who are poor)
• Cooking for others and why you love/hate it
• Party recipes
• Favorite cakes
• First foods
• Genre, item, or ethnicity of food you cannot live without right now
• Your favorite food city
