links

This is just a slew of links that I've stumbled upon (that have made a lasting impression) that I frequently visit. And yes, each and every one I have bookmarked. I think everyone who likes to be in the kitchen should see these sites at least once. On another note, due to the fact that my non recipe pages are outnumbered by my culinary links, I've decided to play fair and list them first.

And, if you'd like to link to my site as well, here is a banner. Or you can just be like me (*cough* I'm lazy *cough*) and just use text links. :)

A Star Trekker's Almost Paradise - My other passion. Live long and prosper.
Robin's Nest... This is my boyfriends's little corner of the Batcave. Caution: Hasn't been updated in a LONG time... try, five years almost. Still up and running and lots of pics of him/us.
Sara's Site. - The girl who never ceases to make me smile. And now she's put it all on a page so now I can laugh even if she's not around! Just don't call her a Motorcycle Mama.
Steve's Site - For all those who seek celebrities, it's true. Ed the Sock did sign Steve's site. Not to mention the fab pics of all his "Chicks of the Week", there's also the fact he thinks he's Spiderman. If that's not enough to make you visit, hows about I just push you?
Seema Unbound - My friend Seema has scored talent in the writing department. She's very gifted when it comes to putting words together, and this website is her little creative outlet. Check it out, and see what other contributions have been made by others who visit her site.

The Great American Spice Company - So many spices, marinades and rubs... They'll make any meal a memorable one.

Trish's Bloomin' Good Recipes - (Not to be confused with my friend Trish) I think this was one of the first recipe pages I ever bookmarked. And it's still up and running and full of mouth-watering goodness.

Chef Older's Food & More - A wonderful little food "community", easy to navigate.

Chyrel's Recipe Box - Lots of scrumptious recipes in her little recipe box.

All Recipes (dot com) - Can't find Aunt Aggie's Christmas Pudding recipe? Your vegan friend is dining with you and your carnivore husband? Need chocolate? Well, this site has everything itemized, organized, given a fan generated star rating system and even provides you with your own free recipe box for all your favourites.

Cooking With Judi - A wonderful site with many Native recipes to tempt your palate. Don't forget to sign her guestbook (and listen to her juke box!)

Fine Cooking Online - A very informative site that goes step by step to teach you how to be that at-home executive chef that you've always wanted to be. Features articles, online how-to videos and some of the most superriffic, fantabulous recipes you'll ever find.

Internet Chef - I kid you not when I say this is the first cooking related website I ever visited. That was back in 1997 I believe, back when Jay and I were just dating. He actually found the website for me. At the time (not sure if it still is) the person who had it up and running was from Prince Edward Island (just across the Gulf for those not familiar with Eastern Canada geography). Then again, PEI can boast it's cooking prowess with chefs like Michael Smith from Food TV Canada's "The Inn Chef" and "Chef at Large".

Flora's Recipe Hideout - Wonderful beverage section in her site, and she's really put a lot of work into this. Food with heart always tastes best.

Global Gastronomer - Why not plant yourself on a map so that people can see where you eat?

Godiva Chocolate - Yeah, I really don't think I need to say anything except - - MY BIRTHDAY IS IN MAY. (Can't hurt to try, can it?)

Martha Stewart Living - There could be a number of bad jokes I could insert here, but no matter what she does with her life away from the camera, I still respect her knack for organizational skill, her baking and cooking abilities, her vast knowledge on all things home-y-ish and her love for her immediate family.

Meals For You - Got stuff at the market and you're not sure what to do with it? Have left overs in the fridge you can't bear to throw out? This site will help you mesh the two of those into a very tasty meal.

RecipeLand.Com - Just like their website says: Fast, Easy, Free and Fun.

Steph's Country Kitchen Goodness - The fussiest person in the world is my Jay. This site has SOOOO been a huge sigh of relief. Every single recipe I've tried, he has liked. And I've let Steph know it each and every time as well. She's put a lot of work into this site, with recipes organized into categories. She has kitchen tips and monthly meal planning as well. When you visit, make sure you give her a shout through her guestbook - let her know how awesome her site is.

Recipe and Cooking Websites Online - An absolutely wonderful resource for all sorts of different internet cooking sites/pages. A lot of hard work went into this.

All About Food - Lots of recipes. I mean... LOTS. Including more Crockpot recipes on someone's personal site than I have seen in an actual Slow Cooker cookbook. She also includes a handy 'how-to' for turning conventional recipes into crock recipes. :)

Just Recipes - Just what it says. And is there ever a lot of 'em!

Kitchens, Crafts n' More -Oh, I wish I had more time to do everything and bake everything this site has to offer. *sigh*

FreeRecipe.Org - Like Grandma's Grandma used to make. They're trying to preserve recipes without updating them. Good to know that some of these recipes are heirloom recipes now.

Cybersoup - A very respectable collection of recipes for all sorts of occasions. Also includes a recipe submission form so that you can share your favourites!

The Writing Hermit's Recipes - If anyone is a fan of author Jan Springer ("Peppermint Creek Inn", "As Big as the Sky" and "Love Through a Strangers Eyes"), then this is her page. She has a small collection of recipes, but all of them are worth the visit to her page. If you love Days of Our Lives AND donuts, then she's got a special treat for you!

RecipeSource - The online, searchable, recipe database formerly known as SOAR. They were overflowing their server, so they moved, complete with a new name and domain.

Recipezaar - Very well laid out forum with an area to share your recipes, talk about recipe and pages of tips to go along with the actual recipes.
