The Perfect Pantry's shrimp, lemon, herb and feta macaroni and cheese

Whether you’re a food blogger who publishes recipes or you’re trying to find a great mac and cheese recipe for dinner, you just might not love Google’s new Recipe View. I don’t love it. Now, I’m neither a programmer, nor a webmaster, nor an expert. I’m a magazine food writer turned part-time blogger five years ago. I have two food blogs, a decent page rank on the more established blog, and a published archive of more than 800 recipes -- not one of which you’ll be able to find with Google’s new recipe search feature.  Read more >

About Me: 

I'm a Rhode Island-based food writer with two food blogs. The Perfect Pantry (www.theperfectpantry.com) features 250+ favorite ingredients, with recipes for how to use them. Soup Chick (www.soupchick.com) is all about soup!

 

Dear to my heart is my nonprofit organization, Drop In & Decorate (www.dropinanddecorate.org) that helps people organize and host cookies-for-donation events in their own communities. In the past year, more than 7,000 cookies were decorated and donated to family and emergency shelters, food pantries and senior centers in 16 states across the US, and in India and Germany. Special thanks to the many BlogHers who are helping to spread the word.
