the thinking blogger award

As one blogger leaves the world of memes, I feel it is my time to enter...

One of my favorite blog (and website) authors has nominated me as one of his 5 choices for the Thinking Blogger Award.  I am humbly grateful.

As a result, I would like to list my top 5.  These are blogs that make me think.  These may differ greatly from person to person, but then it is a personal list.  The original is not necessarily centered around the sub-category of food blogs, but due to nature of my interests and the purpose of my blog that is the area in which my 5 will fall.

1. Ideas in Food  This was the original food blog for me.  I would not even be doing this if it weren't for the inspiring photos, ideas, and recipes... as well as just thoughts that Alex and Aki share with the world everyday.
2. Khymos Although fairly new, khymos is short on fluff and full of technical information broken down for the chef brain.  We all need to have it broken down once in a while.
3. Food for Design  Amazing and intimidating.  If nothing else, it will make you think.
4. Curious Cook  Harold McGee... need I say more.
5. lamargaritaseagita  An interesting sight by a food scientist/teacher in Spain.  Although I cannot read a word of it in Spanish and the English translation version is not perfect, it speaks a world of fascination to me.

Thats my 5.  They are all great in different ways.  Finding the time to read them all regularly is difficult.
