house of horrors: bon appétit edition

 

My dad has been a big fan of Bon Appétit since I was a kid. However, it wasn't until over winter break that I discovered the extent of the obsession. Check out the massive collection of issues that have been hidden away in our home since 1998. (Yup, that's right: We liked Bon Appétit before it was cool.) A few weeks ago, my mom finally decided not to renew our subscription - and with good reason! We're not pack rats, I swear...

Yesterday I spent far too long scoping out blogs to follow on Google Reader, but in a way it was worth it because all I can think about is living a semi-sustainable, self-sufficient life, and it makes me happy. I look forward to silly things like going grocery shopping and making trips to the farmers market and going home for Thanksgiving Break so I can knit and hang out with my dog all day. In five years I will probably be living off dumpstered artisan bread and homemade hummus, eating wild strawberries and cheese from the neighbor's uncle's farm. I'll keep you posted.

Anyway, onward to my list of favorite blogs (which will undoubtedly be updated with great frequency). For the most part they are organized categorically, and some I discovered way back when I was fourteen (eep) and still enjoy today. So I hope you like them too:
