Ah, the Monday. Not my most favourite of days, but sometimes it is. One thing I love is looking back at my blogships and seeing who wrote what that was food related. Hope you enjoy what I think was the best of last week.

The ladies at Trotski and Ash do it again. Meyer lemon tart. Believe it.

I forgot how I found Sam Spina's blog, but I am a bonafide addict. I've begun to look forward to his daily comic strips as much as I look forward to my 11am tea break   { mandatory for every English person thank you very much }. Every day Sam posts a comic strip documenting something that happened to him that day, it was only a matter of time til he posted a foodie based strip.  I simply love it - as it smacks of the innovative improv that comes with cooking with what's in the cupboard.

One of my favourite foodie bloggers - lee tran lam - just got back from Japan with an abundance of pictures from the various places where they ate. If you follow her on twitter you may have seen a few of these and drooled like I have been. Expect more to come from Lee Tran!

It's snowing all over, including Toronto. John and Juli of KITKA didn't let the weather deter them from having breakfast eats at a place called Poor John's. Based on their plates alone it's on my 'must eat at' list for when I am next in Canada. { Also check out the cafe THOR in the same post, link above which boasts a wicked mural } .
