Julia reads far too many great food blogs to be able to recommend just a few but urges us all to visit the UK Food Bloggers Association site to browse through their many members. Don’t forget to catch up with Julia’s own blog, A Slice Of Cherry Pie, and visit her Trusted Places profile here.

We hope you’re enjoying these video interviews as much as we are, but who should we interrogate next? Let us know your thoughts!
