Desserts should be good for you
http://www.sugoodsweets.com/blog/
FOr round two, I was hunting down food blogs...about desserts (it sounded too good to pass over). I grinned at the sight of Jessica Su's promise to search out dessert that is not only tasty but good for you as well. Oh sure, there are the insane recipes (bacon+cookies=good idea??), but the humor and willing tone, confessing to a diary almost, to try what ever it takes to get that perfect dessert really won me over. It seems like a picture coated blog is what makes people drool over it, but not here. There is usually only one picture per post, but it's a good quality picture, not taking me away from the real content here: the food. That's why I'd visit a food blog: to make food and have a picture so I know that the concoction I cook up looks half-decent.
THe blog is categorized into groups based on the main food (the "Nutella" and "Eat Your Vegetables" are personal favorites). Just below is a box that has the most popular posts on the blog (nice to see what other people like off this blog). A handy dandy search bar makes finding your guilty pleasure food that much easier. The archives box is small compared to almost all of the other blogs I've seen, but makes for a neater looking layout.
ADitional content to food realated things can be distracting. I guess some people like reading someone's story about their dog, kid, husband, ect. But not me. Jessica Yu kept her focus on the food and came out a winner in my book. Her funky and off-the-beaten-path recipes (and chocolate!) make for an enjoyable read and preps you for food that makes me want to run to the kitchen, take out my spatula and whip up a batch of her breakfast cookies. You have to see then to believe it.
