Blog Updates: Calling All Vegan Bloggers, Gluten Free Bloggers, Healthy Lifestyle Bloggers, Whole Foods Bloggers and Sugar-Free Eaters!
How’s that for a long blog post title? (I seem to be getting more and more loquacious these days. I mean, what is it about selecting a gargantuan word when a diminutive one will do?–oooops, there I go again. . . .).
Along with more ice and snow, resolve to lose weight, a greens cleanse (more on that anon), an ACD update post (coming up on two years on this diet!), new recipes and a two-month holiday from the college where I teach (whoo hoooo!), January also brings with it the following:
- An update of my blog’s Recipe Index (happy to report we are already making progress in that area!)
- An update of my blogroll (see below)
- Renewed testing for my next anti-candida cookbook!
And I could use your help with each of them!
Do you have a blog?
- If you write a blog or website that falls into any of the categories listed in my blog post title–or if you think your blog is similar to mine–please leave a comment on this post with your blog’s name and a link to the main page so I can add it to my blogroll! You must post regularly (at least once a week) to be considered. I’ll include any blogs that fit the categories.
Do You Eat Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free, or Would You Like To?
- If you’re a DDD reader who would like to test sugar free, gluten free, vegan recipes from my upcoming cookbook, please let me know (you don’t need to have a blog for this)! I put out a call for testers a few months back, but then progress on the Breakfast and Brunch ebook was stalled along the way. While I’m hoping my confirmed testers are still on board (hey guys!), if you’d like to join the group as well, please send me an email to dietdessertdogsATgmailDOTcom with the subject line “BREAKFAST TESTER.” I’ll send along the updated info asap.
Thanks, all! 
Stay tuned for the eggplant bacon recipe coming up!
Hey Miss Ricki. I’d love you to add me! I review gluten free dining options in Austin, so i’ve got a niche, but I think it’s a good one! http://www.glutengirlinaustin.blogspot.com. This january I should drop the blogspot & let you know when i do. Also, i’d love to recipe test!

I would love to contribute to your last two tasks! I’ve been eating vegan off and on for a little more than three years, blogging about it for a bit over a year, and just restarted my gluten-free/whole grains only diet. I have really enjoyed reading your blog and trying out your recipes – African sweet potato stew is next on my list, mmm. Looking forward to what the new year brings in!
Happy New Year!

Hey Ricki,
I just started a new blog last week..about gluten-free and IBS and healthy eating, lifestyle, etc… I would be honored to be on your blogroll and get more traffic to my site too
Will be starting to do more food blogging and product reviews.
Do you or any of your readers have suggestions of how I can make my blog successful?
[Reply]
Lately I’ve been combing through your blog because my New Year’s Resolution is to give up sugar in all its forms. I used to get this fun gluten-free, sugar-free, mostly vegan dessert cooking show on Veria (Dish Network) called The Sweet Truth and she used a lot of liquid stevia in her baking. I’m looking forward to experimenting more!
Happy New Year!
[Reply]

Well, Ricki, you know I am a super big fan of yours, and I’d love to be on your blog roll. All my recipes are gluten free, and many are dairy free and refined sugar free, with some vegan, too.
A 2-month break? Oh, boy, am I jealous on that one!
Enjoy, dear!

Hi Ricki,
Rita and I have been fans of DD&D for several years and love your approach to food and related issues. Please add The Gluten-Free Edge http://gfedge.wordpress.com/ to your blogroll. I have sent off that email to be a tester for your new cookbook. Rita and I are gluten free and dip quite often into the vegan mode as long as there is no soy.

Hi Ricki
What a kind offer! I’d be honoured to be listed on your blog roll. My blog is veganinsuburbia.blogspot.com. I haven’t updated in over a month, what with the holidays’ being insane and putting my Master’s application in order, but I should have a bit of time in the next week or so.
Have a great, safe, delicious, and marvellously happy New Year!

Hi Ricki! I’ve just started a food blog, sharing my experiences of living on an anti-candida diet, plus my own recipe experiments. It’s called ‘Crazy, Coco & Nuts‘, all recipes are sugar & gluten free, with options for dairy-free. There are only a few posts right now, as I’ve only just started the site, so it’s still a baby, but one that will grow
[Reply]
Blogroll please!
Novel Eats – http://www.noveleats.com
Also, I wouldn’t mind testing a few recipes. Life’s kind of busy right now, so it would need to be in mid/late January.
[Reply]
Of course I want to be on your blogroll! Me and everyone else.
[Reply]
Hey Ricki! I have a fairly new blog with a focus on vegan food and fitness. I’d love to be on your blogroll. You can find me at: http://runwithsneakers.com/
Thanks!
[Reply]
I would be a happy little Aussie vegemite if I were included on your blogroll Ricki! I write a healthy living/vegan-oriented/raw-curious blog over at http://bonnesante.wordpress.com
Thank you
[Reply]
Hi Ricki! I would love to be on your blogroll and try testing recipes again. I think I would be ok doing it this time….and not too overwhelmed because I’m only working 2-3 days a week and can eat more too.
I’m so excited!
[Reply]
Hi Ricki, I have a vegan food/holistic nutrition blog, Everyone Is Vegan, everyoneisvegan.blogspot.com, I’d be honoured to be on your blogroll!
[Reply]
Recipe tester please too!
[Reply]
Whoops forget to mention Ricki that I’m vegan, gluten-free, ACD. I’ve been vegan for 5 years, vegetarian for over 40+ years. Recently found out I need to be follow a ACD and gluten-free diet, and my husband is allergic to corn, coconut, avocado, and dairy (yeah), so there went out the window all the great raw and GFV desserts I was making for him. Even if not chosen, I low your site, and recipes are a great addition to my files!

I am Fat Gay Vegan. My blogs features food, drink, shopping and more related to being vegan in the UK (and occasionally abroad). Cheers.

Hey Ricki,
Is my Altered Plates still in in?
I know I’ve been a bit delinquent in publishing, but I’ll get back to it when I swing back into a routine. I promise.

Sounds great, Deb! Just let me know when you start posting again and I’ll add you.

Those all sound like great goals. And two months off? That is awesome! I would love to be on your blogroll. I talk about vegan stuff at theradioactivegan.blogspot.com
Good luck with everything!
[Reply]
Wow…so many blogs
I would love to be considered. I’m vegan and I focus on gluten, soy, corn, and preservative/additive free. I have mostly baked goods because they are more difficult to accomplish gluten free, but I also include lower carbohydrate options.
