Savory Sites - Crumb: A Food Blog

There are thousands of food blogs out there, serving delicious food, taking amazing pictures, inspiring with health and nutrition tips. But because there are so many of them, they can sadly get overlooked or missed. There are several little food blog communities, almost like high school cliques, as they hang out, share, and communicate only within that group, rarely going out of their way to find new and exciting food blogs.

I think especially as blogs get larger, it becomes more difficult to deal with the hundreds of followers and comments, and they don't get the opportunity to see what else is out there. Who knows, maybe their hobby only extends as far as their own web page.

I don't have to worry about hundreds of comments, so I am perfectly happy in letting other people know about what other great food blogs are out there!



So today I would like to share with you Crumb: A Food Blog written by Isabelle Boucher.

Crumbs - Zucchini, Pea and Mint Fritters
Isabelle lives in Canada (a fellow Canuck!) and has been a blog writer since 2006. I had originally followed her blog back when it was called Good Food, Good Wine, And A Bad Girl, and I stuck around when she made sweeping changes and renewed her blog.

Crumb is one of those blogs that keeps you coming back for more. I love that she cooks real food that I could make for breakfast/lunch/dinner anytime (although shes more of a seasonalist like myself). And while the recipes are generally simple, she has such unique and interesting twists that you can't believe you had never thought of it before.

Perhaps the best part about viewing Crumb are the photos. Both the photos in this post are from her blog, so it's easy to see what I'm talking about!  So clear and light, I'm insanely jealous every time I visit. She always seems to have the perfect set up around her dishes, I don't know where she stores all her plates and bowls!


In short, this is definitely a blog you should be visiting if you haven't had the opportunity to yet. I guarantee that she will have something on there that will make you raise your eyebrow and cause you to wonder if you have all the necessary ingredients in your house to get cooking.

When your done, all that will be left, will be the crumbs.
