Food Blogs

In 2005, Julie Powell published her cooking blog which became a popular book. That book was recently made into a feature film titled Julie and Julia, starring Meryl Streep and Amy Adams.

Four years later there are countless food blogs and publishers are buying the rights to many of these. Here are some scheduled to come out in the fall.
