There are 14 award categories this year. Between now and 11:59 pm EST on Wednesday, December 5th, everyone is invited to nominate their favorite food blogs in one or more categories. On Monday December 10th, the Top 5 nominations in each category will be announced. These spots are decided by the judging panel, based upon the nominations received the week before only.
Once the top 5 sites are announced for each category, the voting begins. Voting will be open from Monday, December 10th until 11:59 pm EST on Friday, December 14th. You'll have five full days to vote for your favorite sites, determining the winners. The winners will be announced on Monday, December 17th. The complete rules can be found here.
Thanks to J.P. at The Chef From Hell and Susan at Food Blogga for already nominating Farmgirl Fare in the Best Food Blog-Rural category. And many thanks, too, to all of you who have so kindly chosen Farmgirl Fare to receive the various awards that have been making their way around the blogosphere lately (Nice Matters Award, You Make Me Smile Award, etc). I've been keeping a list (I know it's around here somewhere), and one of these days I'll hopefully have a chance to publicly thank each of you individually.
Now, go forth and nominate your favorite food blogs if they haven't yet been nominated. And if you have your own blog, please help spread the word about the Food Blog Awards!
Hey Susan! Good luck with the awards, I'll be sure to pop over and do my thing.
