{ Eastern Standard Time in the USA is midnight in New York and Baltimore and Florida. It's 9 PM in LA and Seattle and Idaho. It's 6 AM in Paris the next day. }
Have you searched the net for your favorites? Have you been generous with your opinions and linking power? Are you inspired by one food blogger over and over? Is there one blog you go to no matter what's going on in your life? Is there a blog you visit to learn about chefs and restaurants or bakers and cakes or how to take the best, most mouth watering photographs of food?
It's that time of year again-- the Well Fed Network's 2007 Food Blog Awards are open for your opinions and nominations.
Do you think there's a blog that's always overlooked by the giants?
And because I was a bit confused I am going to try and break it down for you:
1. Click on this link to be brought to the nomination page.
2. Each category{there are 14} is a link. Click on it and leave your nomination in the comments section of each category. It just takes a few minutes!
Is there one post from 2007 you loved more than any other?
3. Look here to see who the Judges are.
4. The time line is this ------> You have from right this minute until Wednesday December 5 11:59 PM Eastern Standard Time (for The United States) to get your nomination in.
Go On-- make your voice heard! Nominate some underdogs, speak your mind, tell the Well Fed Network the www is wider than it's ever been...
5. Between December 5 and December 10 those fabulous judges will work long and hard to determine who will appear in those 5 slots you will be voting on, which leads us to...
6. Actual VOTING will commence Monday December 10 and end at exactly 11:59 PM EST on Friday December 14th.
YOU have the power to gift 14 blogs Worldwide a certificate that will make them giddy with happiness and introduce their content to new people on every continent and island.
Got it?
A lot of new blogs deserved to be looked at, by the way. Don't get me wrong-- I love getting awards. But there are many a great food blogs out there with less readers and interest and not because they're awful but because there's a lot of "lazy journalism" even on the web.
Take a bit of time to look under mossy rocks for those fabulous tall red hats. We're all gnomes worth knowing.
Thank you for participating-- the more people who cast their widespread nets and lassos, the more kinds of voices and faces will be looked at and considered.
Represent yo. Peace out.
I just voted for you. I tried to vote twice,but I was busted. Goodluck!!!! Peace,Paul
