BlogDay 2006
In the spirit of BlogDay 2006*, I thought I'd post some links to blogs I love to read regularly:
The Dilbert Blog: Scott Adams, creator of the Dilbert cartoon, posts on his blog daily and it never fails to make me laugh so hard that I almost pee my pants.
Celebritology: Courtesy of the Washington Post, this is my dirty little secret blog. At a glance, it gives me the day's top celebrity news. It also helps me decompress from a hard day at the office. <snork>
Bakingsheet: One of my favorite food blogs, this is where I go to read up on recipes and get ideas for new dishes. Because of this blog, I've now made pretzles, blueberry sauce from scratch, and really great oatmeal raisin cookies.
What's for Lunch, Honey?: This is another great food blog, hosted by Meeta from Weimar, Germany. She's an Indian transplant, living in Germany, who speaks English and I love to read her blog. :) She's got an amazing eye and is wicked good with a camera; consequently, her pictures are amazing and mine look like our dog took them. Maybe he did...
Achenblog: Also courtesy of the Washington Post. I've been reading Joel Achenbach's columns since I was an undergrad. They're funny, they're witty, and they're smart. You can't get much better than that. (I recommend his recent piece, titled "Then Why Am I Getting Poorer?".)
Honestly, this is just a small sample of the blogs that I read every now and again. (Okay, pretty regularly. Okay, okay: daily.) But this is a pretty good representation. And, for the record, I didn't include other personal blogs because I didn't want to put something out there that wasn't supposed to be out there. And I feel pretty good that I didn't include a gratuitous link to John's blog. Whoops!
*Truth be told, to capture the actual spirit of BlogDay, I would have had to have found 5 new blogs. But I wasn't that motivated. So you're getting five oldies-but-goodies.
