Food Lovers Websites, Blogs & Shops. There are a lot of fantastic resources online to inspire those of you who love to cook or simply love to eat. From barbeque to baby food and a little of everything in between, I have tracked down a fun (and kind of random) sampling of foodie websites. Go ahead and dig right in.

Can’t afford that dream vacation throughout Southeast Asia? Had to cancel the trip to Provence again this year? Transport your family through the pleasures of herbs and spices from these far way places by signing up for a spice of the month club. A portion of proceeds benefit Bread & Broth and George Whittell’s Thunderbird Lodge. Heart Rock Herb & Spice Co. has been selected as a featured Sweet Peas & Stilettos *Shop for a Good Cause* business.
I love Indian food! I also love this new website, gnaana.com. Teach your children how to cook Indian food from many different regions. They’ve got parent tips along the way so you can learn too. The personalized aprons are pretty darn cute… Yummy!
Check out these adorable coasters available through adreinnewong’s Etsy shop. Yes – those are a bunch of “M’s” making the cool graphic design.
One Hungry Mama is a fantastic blog for food lovers and for moms who want their kids to eat real food. She features delicious recipes, creative ideas and lots of pretty pictures too. The site is definitely worth a look. You will leave hungry though….so be prepared…
