The Magic of Food: A Global Edible Review 
This photo: Admire the difference between white sugar and ground panela. Can you believe that such a perfect golden color exists? Learn about panela by reading my previous post.
***Meet the CHEF: It is NOT gossip, but it is still good! It is an interview (in Spanish) published by Blogs Panama. Go ahead, take a look.***
The latest Global Edible Review has been published at GlobalVoices. I am still shocked about the disturbingly funny "drunken Brazilian wax bar review" and by The Feast Crusade in Singapore. Head over there and enjoy the best of what is going on in the food blogosphere this week.
Thousands of miles away, The Cooks Cottage encounters really tough blogging times when she discovers that her writings have been plagiarized (again!!!) by a local printed newspaper.
Who would have thought this little blog of mine would have such devout readers. Readers who are journalists, who want to spread my words with such faithfulness as to keep the original untouched, in its exact same form, word for word, comma for comma. And print it in one of the nations English dailies, with (purportedly) the highest circulation.
This should warm the cockles of my beating heart, it should fill me with pride and joy, it should, it should...Well it doesn't. I am mad.
The journalist in question, not being content with the already unethical behavior, reacts in a very defensive way when confronted by our fellow blogger. "It was only research," she said. Disgusting. Read the complete post here, and learn how you can protect your work and find out if someone is plagiarizing it.
I'll be RIGHT BACK with the DMBLGIT #14 (March edition) roundup. Stay tuned 
Happy Cooking!

Cool bananas for bing interviewed on Blogs Panama. I will have to bookmark that site and start keeping up on Panama since I will be coming in July. I need to be ready?
Have a good week.
p.s. Thanks for the tomato puree info. The cake ROCKED!

Oh my… I’ve really been out of the loops since my sickness and the passing of my Mother-in-law-to-be. I didn’t know about your DMBLGIT hostess job. And this whole plagiarizing thing is such a shock! I didn’t feel like I had anything unique to say for the last few months and so I’ve been rather scarce. I’d never copy the work of others just because I couldn’t think of what to say. Mind-boggling.

I love the sugar comparison, Melissa. What a wonderful idea to show people the difference! I also loved the global voices roundup and that you found Kitchenqueen. I can’t believe this plagerism thing - what a horrible thing to do! And from a journalist!
