'Top Chef' Season 5, Episode 11: One Fish, Two Fish, Another Bloody Fish

I think they should have sent Leah packing - you don't just throw up the white flag in this type of a situation. Instead you power through and do your best. Another reason to dump her: She's whiny.

I thought Ripert was great. And you gotta love a man with an accent...

'Top Chef' Season 5, Episode 10: 'Monkey Ass Filled with Fried Banana'

I was disappointed in the Quaker Oat challenge.The chefs were asked to use the oats in a new, creative way. What is new and creative about using the oats as breading? And several of them used that cop out. That's what I would have done. I expected more.

In Defense of Breakfast: A Morning Manifesto

very interesting observations you've made about breakfast...

Breakfast is the worst meal of the day for me because 1) I won't get up early enough to cook at home so it has to be something I can eat on the go, or reheat at work; 2) subscribing to a low-carb diet has eliminated EVERY SINGLE traditional breakfast item I used to eat (including the non-traditional chocolate cake); and 3) I hate eggs. Unless they are in the chocolate cake, of course.

I am hungry 24/7 so I always eat SOMETHING prior to 10 a.m. I end up in the boring habit category by chowing down an Atkins bar and a Diet Coke most days. Today was different: I reheated mahi mahi with a bell pepper salsa from dinner last night. Thanks goodness for dinner leftovers.

Cook the Book: 'Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics'

Cheesy Potatoes (my daughter's name for them) - a casserole made with frozen hash browns, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, cheese, breadcrumbs, etc. It's a breeze to make, and if there's any leftover, great reheated.

Sweet Potato Fries -- Who Likes These Things?

Funny that you are discussing SPF - I just posted a review on Fork You Blog of a place in Rhode Island who talked me into the SPF for "a little bit more", all the while assuring me they were crispy. NOT! And a little bit more was actually an additional $2.50.

I think I would love the sweet/salty combination of the SPF if I would ever receive some that are crispy. I can even tolerate the burntness, to a degree. My belief in this notion causes me to continue to order them when I see them on a menu even though I know I will likely be disappointed.

Utz makes some wonderful sweet potato chips that are crispy and non-burnt. Maybe the nice people at Utz could share the secret and help these other folks out.

Mystic Pizza, Twenty Years After the Movie

I am in Mystic right now - been eating my way through the area. I have not been to Mystic pizza yet. Well, except to take a photo. I am disappointed to know that the movie was not filmed there but I have also been to Stonington to eat at Noah's so I suppose I was close to the "scene of the cinematic crime". I have been reviewing the restaurants I've hit on fork you blog.

Daniel, thanks for the recommendation on the Sea Swirl. I have three more days left to sample the local fare!

I've been writing Croque-Camille: Food adventures in Paris for a little over a year and a half, and I just started a mini-blog called Seasonal Market Menus, which is all about cooking from my CSA share.

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!
