Sweet on Walla Walla Onions
A beloved PNW burger chain (Burgerville) has Walla Walla onion rings on the menu every summer. I think onion rings would be a great way to showcase just how special and delicious these onions are!
Serious Cocktails: Pining for Pimm's
My mom loves a good classic Pimm's Cup, but I am more partial to a Porch Swing, a drink invented at Blue Smoke that I read about the recipe online.
The Porch Swing:
1/2 oz. Hendrick's gin
1/2 oz. Pimm's No. 1
4 oz. homemade lemonade
Add a splash of 7-Up
Finish with finely sliced half-moon cucumbers
The Great American Food & Music Menu: It's Awesome!
Oh yum, I want to go to the Anchor Bar so badly right now. A true Buffalo classic, I'm glad they're being represented in the festival!

The Joys of Unnaturally Flavored Sodas
Is Diet Dr. Pepper considered a cola? Man, that stuff is so addictive! Birch beer is good too, but I tend to prefer diet soda just because all the sugar in regular makes my teeth feel really gross!

My blog is poorly tended because as a full time student I don't have a lot of free time about 8 months of the year. Nonetheless it is my pride and joy, it can be found here
Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris - any recommendations?
I was at Jules Verne for lunch almost 3 years ago, before they did their recent re-vamp, and it was incredible. Definitely the most memorable lunch I've ever had. I would definitely recommend it!

Look, all of us want more blog traffic, and there is no way we can read all of our collective blogs, but we should really make an effort to check out at least other 5 SE's blogs if we post our own in this thread --after all, not fair to 'shill' if you don't help others out!

So wonderful to have so many fellow writers! I actually have two blogs to share. One is my personal blog: www.thedilettantista.wordpress.com which covers, well, EVERYTHING, cooking, restaurants, movies, etc. I started it this summer when I was living in New York City for an internship, so it is especially heavy on NYC eating.
I am also a contributing writer to Carpe Durham, a food blog that focuses on eating in Durham, North Carolina. The blog was started a few years ago by Duke law students, and I am a newer writer. The blog is a great source if you live in the Triangle area!

@Madelyn -- KarmaFreeCooking is one of my favorite blogs! I love it. Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into it.
While I'm at it, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you food bloggers. The time, effort, and enthusiasm you all put into your blogs delights, entertains, and educates the rest of us.
Thank you all!

The Joys of Unnaturally Flavored Sodas
I am not really big on soda anymore BUT last summer I was in Nags Head, NC and found the famous Cheerwine, a NC thing. It is fizzy cherry-flavored soda, not cherry cola, just cherry soda. It is out of this world delicious.
Last week when we were close to the border of NC and leaving for WV, I hit a supermarket and bought myself a 12 pack to take home to NJ. We can't get it here. It is my favorite soda in a really long time.
Otherwise I really like Cherry 7Up but they don't sell it in cans around here, just 2 liter bottles, which I have no room for in the refrigerator. I also love Crystal Light Wild Strawberry (comes in a powder that you mix with water) and their Citrus stuff too. Excellent mixed with some green tea! I make fusions of all kinds of things.
I have never liked Fresca. When I was a child, all the skinny cool girls drank the Diet Fresca and that was all they drank (that and lots of folks drank Tab) - neither of which I could get a tasting for. My favorite soda at the time was Pepsi - just plain Pepsi. To this day, I prefer plain Pepsi over anything Coke, don't know why. BUT I prefer Diet Coke to Diet Pepsi.

I'm a firefighter, and our rehab vehicle would always have a dry mix powder of something called Squencher, it was sort of a generic Gatorade knock-off. There is nothing that tastes better than that stuff after a structure fire. It was randomly citrusy and just spectacular.
The Joys of Unnaturally Flavored Sodas
First of all, I love this post & reading all the comments - so many unknowns to me!
Fresca, LOVE! Just tried the Black Cherry which was excellent! Never thought to use it as a mixer!
Polar Orange Dry, which we picked up when our usual Lemon Seltzer was out; we didn't realize it was pop but loved it!
Tahitian Treat, good memories with this one! Somehow delicious with its sickening sweetness!
Ale-8-One, I can't believe it hasn't come up yet! It's an excellent ginger ale with a pun-y name. Maybe just a regional thing but you could only find it in KY where it's made forever. Then a few years ago, they started to allow it to be sold "'cross the river" in Cincy and southern OH. I loved this stuff!
Canada Dry Green Tea, a new favorite! Great combo (though a bit sweet) & such sparkling goodness!
