Emilie Boudet sent in a link to Recipe Look, and the idea behind the site is to provide an alternative way to writing out recipes: by drawing them instead! Anyone can enter the fun project, and to find out in detail about how to go about doing so, see their illustrated guide right here.

In other food related matters, Pikaland’s Good to Eat flickr group now has 300+ members, and is growing steadily too! Be part of the group and show off what’s keeping your tummy nicely filled via photos or illustrations!

Kate Bingaman-Burt is illustrating mixtapes! I’ll let her explain:

“It is official. Mixtapes are almost impossible to find in the wild. Big thrift stores don’t carry them, small thrift stores sometimes have them, but not often. People are more likely to throw away or keep a mixtape instead of donating them to their local thrift store. Even when you donate to the goodwill they throw them away.

So, I want to draw your mixtapes. I want your sad songs, your love jams, your sing at the top of your lungs car tunes, your break-up tape, your make-up tape and your BFF-4evah cassette.”

Check out the set here and send her a photo of your best mix!

There’s loads of blogs out there that teach you about online self-promotion for the digital area. There’s ProBlogger for bloggers, Future Buzz for digital marketing and PR and for a more lively (and vicarious traipse down one lady’s career), there’s the Brazen Careerist blog by Penelope Trunk.

Now, there’s one for creatives as well. The Red Lemon Club is run by Alex Mathers and is for creatives, including artists, musicians, performance artists, writers and designers, but anyone wishing to promote themselves more effectively on the web can also use this as a fresh online resource for getting through to your audience on the internet.

A good starting point would be this article: The Human Side to Online Self Promotion.
