A new blog to the round up. I came across <a href="http://www.crumbsfordinner.com/">Crumbs for dinner</a> last week when checking out some nifty Brit-Blogs. Grania is a talented London blogger by night and researcher by day. Check out her posts for great inspiriations of what you could be making for dinner - and trust me, its more than mere crumbs!
Her post about Baba Ganoush was a good one..in part because every time I see or hear the words Babaganoush <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wesnir3sPCs">this song</a> comes to mind. I need help. Anyhow, she makes BabaG seem so easy to make - I don't know why I've never tried to do so..but now, this recipe has been added to my 'must make list'.

</a>

I love me some farmer's market. I have way to many pictures on my phone of goods i've procured from them, not to mention pictures of stalls for 'future reference', in case I occasion upon them at a different market location. The idea of buying produce that was made or grown locally and have the opportunity to converse with the maker/cultivator I personally find very valuable. It makes me hope this 'trend' of Farmer's markets is a lasting one.
I've not ever been to one in Canada, but last week I <a href="http://hindsvik.com/?p=3373">lived vicariously</a> through hindsvik. Their trip to the farmers market resulted in some drool-worthy pictures like the two above. But there are much much more..check the rest of the pictures out on the <a href="http://hindsvik.com/?p=3373">hindsvik blog</a>.

</a>

I love <a href="http://www.frankie.com.au/">Frankie Magazine</a> and always pick up a copy when I travel to Australia. It's crafty, creative, interesting and inspiring. Their aesthetic is illustrative but cute - like a girl wearing bunny ears and a tattoo of the schmeatics to the bat cave, (what?? I find that kewl!). While reading through Aussie blogger Lily's site, I came across a post announcing the release of Frankie's new 2011 diary.
I love a tangible diary - for writing in my dinner dates, cafe rendezvous as well as note what to cook when and what recipes/new cooking product to look up. I always have a diary open on my desk to peruse my week, nay my life 'at a glance'. This new Frankie diary would be great for my 2011 food exploits. See how to order it via <a href="http://secure.morrisonmedia.com.au/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=2&amp;products_id=132">here</a>.
