Favourite Food Blogs
I did this for a reply on Melanie's lj, but thought I might share for anyone else looking for yummy food blogs..
I haven't made much out of many blogs, so I've judged these mostly based on what I either star a lot (and intend to cook from) or love to read!! A small collection of what I read, here:
http://www.vegalicious.org/
Lots of recipes. Neil's made the mushroom mustard soup, which was delicious enough for me to make as well (I used a version closer to the original recipe that she linked, though, in order to make a greater volume and avoid opening a bottle of wine - froze it all in the freezer so I don't know which is a winner).
http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/
This blog has lots of healthy recipes (with the occasional really not fat free thing :). I've made one recipe she's posted, a red lentil sambar (uh, adjusting the ingredients because I didn't know what sambar was...). That, and many of the recipes she posts I think, come from other sources such as cookbooks.
http://veganyumyum.com/
Has lots of recipes I've starred, though none I've made yet. Sometimes focuses on vegan substitutes for dairy, but recipes can always be un-veganised for convenience ;)

Kim & Thomas' food blog. They have put up a lot of variations on pizza, and some fun things like degustation breakfasts. One of the recipes she's posted has become a favourite: http://whatkimate.co.nz/2007/06/24/red-lentil-pasta-sauce/

This one's good, too, though the higher proportion of non-vegetarian recipes means I don't star as many.

Mostly (though not exclusively) Indian recipes on this blog, as well as some non-recipe posts. Haven't made anything from it yet but I have a few yummy things starred.

Fabulous writing and photography. She writes about food in context of her life and travel, in a story telling way, with recipes at the end. Photos are also not restricted to food. Have not yet made any of her recipes, but she does a lot of sweet and savoury tartlets using alternative (gluten free) flours. Everything always looks so yummy! And I like it for the touch of French, as well.

Similar to the above in the sense of having a very conversational style, and often talking about the emotive or personal historical aspects of her recipes as well as just food. Haven't cooked anything of hers either, but she has recently posted a recipe for a beautiful looking cannelloni that I seriously want to try...
