Friday Five Foodie Finds #3 {New Favorite Foodie Photographer}

October 7, 2011 by Amanda R DeWitt

Happy Friday everyone!! 
I hope your week has been good and productive and now you can be lazy over the weekend.  🙂  Mine was somewhat the opposite with my stinkin cold but good news..I am feeling better!

Now I would like to share with you the thing I did get accomplished this week….blog surfing and good foodie finds.  🙂  Enjoy the delightful pictures and recipes that I found this week!

1. Lemon Snickerdoodles

I had to put this BEAUTIMUS picture up first!  I am in love with the photography I am seeing at www.notsohumblepie.com.  I just discovered this blog and it’s going on my recommended blogs!  I may be making this cookie for the BF as his favorite cookie is the snickerdoodle and he’s going out of town next week so I may be giving him some goodies to go!  {Let’s see if he reads this post or if it’s a surprise when he gets these delights.  😉 }


2. Apple Goat Cheese Pecan Pizza

This recipe was sent to me by a friend because we were supposed to make this pizza together (actually I think it was pear instead of apple) and we just haven’t gotten together yet. 

3. Pumpkin Streusel Coffee Cake

Gotta have some pumpkin in the mix yes?  It is October!  I also enjoyed the post that went along with Kelly’s recipe because it had to do with ESPRESSO!  In case you didn’t know, I have a side-job (on the side of school and my wing/beer joint job and babysitting) where I do espresso and smoothie catering so I looove everything coffee!

4. Egg Salad Sandwich with Greek Yogurt

There’s a zillion food items on the post that Allie did, but somehow I picked out the egg salad sammich.  It sounded amazing and she used greek yogurt (the mom’s a fan).

 5. Baked Potato Soup

This is another new blog that I found www.skinnytaste.com because this soup was on Iowagirleats.com.  So now I have a new recipe and a new blog to follow!  Perty pictures too.

Hope you enjoy these pictures!  Hey are you on Pinterest??  I am!  Follow me and my pictures that I take and find.  So many talented photographers out there so this Pinterest thing is ADDICTING!!  (As I was getting the link I couldn’t stop browsing pics!)

Are you on Pinterest?
What’s your new fav blog to follow?

Have a fantastic weekend all!
