The Results Are In
Thank you to everyone who voted for Corduroy Orange in the Wellfed Network’s Best Food Blog by a Chef Competition. Thanks to your support, Corduroy Orange earned third place in the contest.
Pastry chef, cookbook author, and Chez Panisse alum David Lebovitz (http://www.davidlebovitz.com) ran away with the first place prize, earning more than half of all votes cast.
Second place went to Shuna Fish Lydon, also of the San Francisco Bay Area, and the Eggbeater blog (http://eggbeater.typepad.com/).
When I last checked the polls, fourth place was a toss-up between nineteen-year-old culinary student Aidan Brooks’s page (http://aidanbrooks.blogspot.com/) and bakers (& former Pittsburghers) Kelli Bernard and Andrew Lin’s dessert blog (http://www.lovescool.com).
These are all great blogs and I’m honored to have been included in their company. Please keep reading Corduroy Orange and sending me your questions, and I’ll keep trying to post interesting and informative articles about the world of food.

Congratulations on your nomination and placement. It was a tough category with some well established players. I appreciate the time you take to explain things and your willingness to answer questions. Some blogs are a little too self indulgent for my vote.
