Well, here it is - time to show you all of the food bloggers who've participated in this roundup. My intention was to get an idea of exactly who is behind some of my favorite food blogs. I was overwhelmed with how many food bloggers participated, and I think you'll love seeing exactly who creates all the magic on some really excellent blogs. Many of my favorites joined in, and there were also a few I hadn't visited yet, but will surely be on my daily rotation.
Before I let you see the rest, it's only fair that I take a minute to come out from "behind the apron" and introduce myself. I am a 29-year old female that lives in the eastern part of Pennsylvania. I'm originally from Anaheim, California, and have lived and traveled in a quite a few countries in my years, including Guatemala, Kenya, and Bulgaria. I'm currently attending school full-time at Millersville University, pursuing my Masters degree in Social Work.
Here's a picture of me, standing in my parent's kitchen. My setup at home isn't nearly as nice as this, and I do love the chances I get to cook here.
I've been a vegaquarian for almost 2 years. I initially started giving up meat as a way to focus on eating more vegetables, and over the past 2 years, I've seen some wonderful health benefits that have made me stick to it. It's also given me a chance to seek out new ways to try and prepare vegetables, as well as coming up with hearty and satisfying meatless dishes.
I've always wanted to open my own restaurant, and am hoping that at sometime in the future, it may become a reality. I'm still steadily learning more about cooking and photography, and have truly enjoyed hosting 28 Cooks. I appreciate all of my loyal and faithful readers who stop by daily, and I love reading your comments.
I know for some of the food bloggers, it was hard to come out from behind that shroud of anonymity that goes with the Internet, but I'm thankful that so many of you participated. So without further ado, here's the list of some really excellent food blogs, and a chance to see who's "Behind the Apron."
