A Call for Bloggers

Belly Up to The Big Sky Buffet


By Matthew Frank, 10-04-07

NewWest.Net and Montana blogger Dave Budge are teaming up to bring you The Big Sky Buffet, a smorgasbord of recipes, restaurants, equipment, eating anecdotes and tricks and tips on how to prepare food.

Here’s how it will work: Dave has created a new blog for the foodie community called The Spoon, and NewWest.Net is going to publish its tastiest morsels every two weeks.

As Dave writes on his site, The Spoon is not intended to be a repository of gourmet eating—although that’s appreciated too—but, rather, eating anything that is delicious. Dave welcomes ideas for the most basic foods, such as perfect and unique hamburgers, to the exotic.

Here’s the deal du jour: The Spoon wants you to contribute. So visit The Spoon, send in your Montana culinary know-how, and look for The Big Sky Buffet to heat up on NewWest.Net in the next couple weeks. Our bellies are already growling.

Tom Leonard built an Earthship on top of a hill near Florence, Mont., for his family to live in after reading an article about the homes almost 20 years ago. Knowing very little about the technology required to run a self-sustaining house, and with limited building experience, the project took nearly two decades to complete.

I'd love to also see video on this (or even just audio). Reading about cooking is not my deal (nor is cooking for that matter). However, if I can see what your talking about, it makes big difference. I'm probably not going to read a cooking blob if there isn't some audio or video included.

Jnet, there is no cooking "blob" at The Spoon. Only pages of bloggie goodness.

And although we have yet to offer any video there is an increasing number of restaurant reviews and other non-cooking related stuff.
