Let's Eat!

Happy Weekend!

I'm a day late on those sentiments because I was in Portland yesterday, taking part in the International Food Bloggers Conference. I was there on behalf of a client, Wheat Springs Bakery, and participated in a live blogging event showcasing Oregon products. 

Wondering what a live food blogging event is exactly? Take about 200 bloggers who are obsessed with good food, mix in a dozen Oregon-based producers armed with samples of Oregon-made cheeses, chocolates, beers and other yummy foodstuffs, throw them all into a room for 60 minutes and voila! you've got yourself an awesome (and quite tasty) afternoon. 

The whole experience has me second-guessing this whole writing children's books thing. Who needs princesses and superheroes when you can taste and write about cheese and chocolate for a living?

Kidding. Sort of. We're still going to London. Promise.

Anyhoo, here are my favorite links this week:
Support for my decision to never grow up
Members of Congress? They're not all alike. Some are Yentas.
The letter every parent must read to their child
The best new thing on the internet this week
