Sacramento Historic House Blog

Since it is almost Thanksgiving, let’s take a moment to discuss food. If you like to eat food, think about food, and make food… you probably like to read about food. Here are some local Sacramento food bloggers who are currently making us drool on our keyboards.

Simply Recipes
You may not know this but Elise’s blog was named one of Time magazine’s top 50 coolest websites of 2006. The basic premise is this: she tries out different recipes, takes gorgeous photos of the finished product, shares only the best findings with her readers, and then presumably digs in. It’s a simple concept that works. Plus she brings her parents in to share in some of the cooking and I think that’s sweet.

Vanilla Garlic
Lovely blog about “culinary adventures” in Sacramento. Garrett is a grad school student (and I suspect that he might be studying photography because his pictures are almost as delicious as the food he describes.) who somehow finds the time to write restaurant reviews, document funny conversations about carrots growing on trees, and bake cupcakes.

He She Chew Chew
There is just something charming about this site run by Mark and Brandy. I like the bright unfussy layout and the way each post is labeled either He or She depending on who wrote it. They talk about food, agriculture, and related stuff but they don’t post often enough for my liking (I can relate).
