- ORDER UP: Shrimp Taco Salad with Black Bean Puree at Arkansas Foodies
Jill and Kerry and the gang are covering the state's culinary travel for the state of Arkansas and the Department of Parks and Tourism over on the Arkansas Culinary Blog. Entries range from events you can attend around these parts to restaurant reviews to important state food announcements.
Michael at Arkansas Foodies has been doing a splendid job of combining delicious recipes with restaurant reviews and festival updates. Bonus: his fiance, Jessica Miller, is pretty darn good at food porn photography, too. You really should check his blog out.
I've been enjoying glancing over at Lindsey's Menu from time to time. There's no "about us" on it, just a post every day or so about a different recipe tried with a link to the recipe, results and a picture. That's pretty cool AND it meets the good blog rule: thou shall update the blogs you create.
At Terri's Table, it's Terri coming up with the recipes, and some of them are fantastic. I've been meaning to try out her recipe for Grandmother's Bread, made with ricotta cheese whey. Sounds delightful.
There's Dining with Debbie... I may have mentioned this blog before, but there's always something new. Along with other entries, Debbie does a "What's on the menu Wednesday" each week that covers some great recipes.
I have to note Lorri Hambuchen. I met her back in my TV days and know few who can rival her knowledge of wine. Her Conversations on Wine blog is a very informative. I've found a wealth of useful topics on her website — everything from how to buy a good wine to what to pair with it. I especially appreciate her blog on pairing wine with chocolate.

Kat - thanks so much for the shout-out, and for posting all these other blogs; we love keeping up with what other people are doing/eating/cooking.
I've got to give credit where credit is due, though - I write the Arkansas Foodies blog and do most of the cooking but the excellent photography is done by my fiancee Jessica Miller - I couldn't do the blog without her.
KAT: Changed and noted!

Kat - Very much appreciate being mentioned. Thank you for including Terri's Table.
Hi Kat, I was so excited to see that you read my blog! (As you can see, I read yours, too!). Your mention has inspired me to spiff up a few things on it, and I've also started a LindsaysMenu twitter roll. Thanks again, Lindsay
Thanks for the mention Kat. I love your column. And congrations on your Media Support Award at the Annual Arkansas Governor's Conference on Tourism.
