Kentucky Food Bloggers Association Inaugural Networking Dinner
Way back when I started this blog, I thought that the only people who would care what I was cooking up was my mom and maybe a friend or two. I quickly realized that this food blogging thing was bigger than I ever imagined. It's a whole community of people willing to cook and share and help whenever possible. I was lucky enough to meet a fellow food blogger, Lori at Fake Food Free, in the infancy of my blog. I was living in France and she in Brazil, but we connected over food and the fact that we were both ex-pats. I returned to Kentucky and a few months later, she moved to the small town bordering mine. Crazy!
Last spring, we started to realize that there were quite a few food bloggers in Kentucky. She knew Melissa at My McDonald Meal, and I knew Sami from A Teenage Gourmet. We started talking about organizing a group of Kentucky food bloggers...because surely, if there were four of us in Central Kentucky, there would be more. Sixty (yes, 60!) food bloggers later, we have a strong and talented group. (Go check us out on Facebook if you haven't already!) And it doesn't stop there! In the spring, Alltech, a Kentucky company, approached Lori to see if we would be interested in hosting a dinner sponsored by them. Of course, we were! And that dinner finally happened last Friday night. At Jonathan's at Gratz Park nonetheless. And there was food. And swag. And raffles. And tickets to the Incredible Food Show. And laughter, always laughter.

sounds like an amazing event with lots of great people + fun people. i had no idea, either, how quickly i'd connect with people + make lots of friends through food blogging. our nashville food bloggers group is super tight-knit + we meet at least once a month for happy hours, events + get-togethers. the people i've connected with is definitely my favorite part of blogging!
You are a extremely specialized blogger. I have joined your feed Kentucky Food Bloggers Association Inaugural Networking Dinner and look forward more of your brilliant blog posts,
Yummy! Well, I guess, the event was just standing by what it is for since, they are food bloggers it's just justifiable for them to have a bunch of delicious foods. I also remember appearing to an event about foodie stuff in a catering hall in Long Island, NY. I must say the foods are really exquisitely tasty.
Grilled Alltech Angus Ribeye with Horseradish Creamed Collard Greens is one of the best steaks that I’ve ever tasted! I can’t really resist this food that it made me try this recipe at home, good thing there’s a nearby meat market in our place, and cooked the recipe in a well done manner!
You are right about that. Food blogging has a large audience because all of us love food. Unlike other niche where it will depend to the knowledge and profession so your audience will really be sorted out.
Excellent blog you have here.. It is onerous to search out high-quality writing like yours these days. I really respect folks like you! Take care!!
Like what I expect from a food bloggers gathering. All the foods looks yummy and delicious, I hope I could eat up some of them too.
The resto looks like a good place to unwind. Looking at the resto’s interior design makes me want to visit this place.
That sure is a lot of food to eat! I was hoping I could create something as close to the ones you've got here but I note that I should have all those proper equipment to cook like a pro.
