Each year, the food blog community nominates its favorite posts of the year, then takes a vote to determine the Post of the Year. Naturally -- so many food blogs, soooo many posts, such short memories -- recent posts and consistently good writers dominate the nominations. To balance the year and the writer pool during 2008, here on BlogHer, each month let's collect a handful of posts that represent great writing from great food blogs. Here are my own contributions of the best writing from food blogs during January. But blog writers and blog readers, you too. Think back over January. What post moved you? called to you? made you think? changed your thinking? made you laugh? grabbed you at the first line? turned a memorable phrase? captured the rhythm of the month? If you have a contribution too, leave a comment with a link. And during February, watch. We'll look at Cooks with Quills each month.
