Lovely Internet 10.11.13

Someone wise recently told me that lists and links are a great way to connect with your readers on a personal level and to give accolades to the people on this internet who make your heart happy. So I thought I’d jump on the Friday link roundup train and start a weekly link list of things I’m loving, both Southern food related and a little more general; a series that I’m calling Lovely Internet. Here are this week’s ten things from around the web that put a smile on my face.

1. Glad I never stopped eating eggs!

2. How amazing is this? I’ve been reading Anne of Green Gables to my students and I have to say, I might need that tote.

3. Hot Cocoa Popcorn. I’ll be trying this immediately.

4. Just a few short days until this girl is ours.

5. Happy Columbus Bartolome Day.

6. I continue to be impressed by the weekly installment of The Bitter Southerner.

7. Bourbon Chai. I’m not usually a big fan of hot booze but this sounds enticing.

8. Muscadine Rose Hand Pies. I’ve had hand pies on the brain, and a jar of muscadine preserves already in the fridge…

9. How much do Kaylee and River probably need homemade dog coats? It will get cold here for my two short haired dogs. (see also)

10. The Difference Between Baking Powder and Baking Soda.

Also this week Psychology of Eating included me in a list of its top 100 “Foodie” websites. Thanks guys!
