This week we are recognizing Mommy (and one Daddy) bloggers who, through their hard blogging work, have helped many a parent put a quick dinner together, provide laundry tips, and teach us shortcuts for making school lunches. Mommy and Daddy blogs offer more than just useful parenting and cooking tips, they are also the voice of a community.

Just as informative as reading news blogs, and as addictive as a gossip column, mommy bloggers are an inspiration to new mothers and experienced grandmothers alike. With all the gorgeous food photography and delicious recipes, you don’t have to be a parent to appreciate this week’s featured food blogs.

Just to kick things off, here are some quick and easy menu ideas for the week!
