I checked my email this morning to find a message from Professor Salt of You Gonna Eat That? pointing me to this article on the Los Angeles Times website. You can read the parent article here.
Freakin' unbelievable. I'd like to thank Amy Scattergood, the author of the article, for both noticing this blog and for feeling that my writing is good enough for a mention in the LA Times. Thanks, Amy! You've made my day!
I was also really happy to see Gastronomy 101, Colleen Cuisine, Oishii Eats, Tuna Toast, and Erin's Kitchen make the list. Of course, it wouldn't be a party without Deep End Dining and You Gonna Eat That?. But, I was surprised that Monster Munching, which I consider to be the definitive Orange County food blog, did not. It's ok, Elmo. Like the Prof said, we still love you.

bad ass chubbs! of course you're worthy. but you're right, elmo should've been listed. congrats.
Yeah, we know, but we love you anyway. ;) Congrats again.
Hmm, if any Chowhound meanies are still lurking, doesn't this make you want to say, "Neener, neener?" Or is that too petty?
You are sooo cool!
Sure it's good to welcome the new year with this :)
Congrats CP! You and everyone on that list deserves to be recognized. And thanks for the shout out (Prof Salt and Eddie and everyone). As I mentioned on PS's blog, it means more to me that you guys have my back! This blogging thing is fun ain't it?!
Everyone,
I usually prefer to respond to each person individually. However, in this case, modesty compels me merely to offer each of you my heartfelt thanks for your support. You guys are what make food blogging truly fun. Without you, I wouldn't still be writing. Thank you. Thank you so much.

Can I have your autograph, because you are a real celebrity now! Forget about Britney Spears and Paris Hilton! Congratulations! (And since I commented after your "everyone" address, you'd better give me a personal response!)

Awesome! What a great way to start a new year. Congratulations!
PE,
Here's your personal response.

DG & Steen,
Thanks so much. As I said before, it's all the great readers and talented food bloggers that I've met online that keep my passion for this hobby alive. You guys are the greatest.
