Dan, you've outdone yourself this week! I feel like taking the rest of the day off so I can read each and everyone. Great stuff here!
I second the nod to Charmian's photography post on Christie's Corner this week. It was excellent!
Leslie's SW eggrolls look so freaking good.
I love the categorizing of the links. That really works nicely.

Diva, thanks for the good vibes and feedback, glad these links are of value to you.
Melissa, holy cow, I couldn't agree more. Leslie makes some really good stuff and her recipes tend to be very easy. Also thanks for your feedback too, I'm still tweaking these links posts, but I think I've arrived at a format that works for my readers. Glad to hear you like it.
Hi P&A, glad to be of service! I found Bronson's book to be extremely helpful.
