Hippyshopper isn't a food blog per se, but we are pretty interested in it - interested enough to pass on the word about Blogging By Mail being back. The idea is that food bloggers get randomly paired up and send each other packages of their local specialties (non-perishable is a good idea unless you want to splash out for priority shipping!) and then blog about what you get sent. Organic nosh tends to be on the perishable (or heavy, sealed in glass) side, but surely some enterprising foodies can come up with ways to represent Wales, Scotland, Ireland or England in a green and glorious fashion. Here's a list of previous packages; to sign up email thehappysorceress at gmail dot com by August 25. [GT]
