Illustrated Etymology
One of the sites I love visiting is Illustrated Etymology. I just wish they had more food related art!
“Illustrated Etymology is just that - a collection of visual correlatives to English word history. These illustrations are an exploration, evolution and celebration of the history and meaning of words and language. Each interpretation is up to the individual artist, but most serve a “descriptive / informative” function, whether abstract, figurative or diagrammatic.”
My favorite one is their newest one, Porcelain, illustrated by David Iglesias:

Things I love: “Cut Food”, a series from food photographer Beth Galton and food stylist Charlotte Omnès (via)
Things I love: This series of kitchen portraits by Erik Klein Wolterink. Each cabinet and drawer is photographed, and then the individual images are stitched into one to show an intimate look at one’s kitchen.
Things I love: Picture Cook, an illustration-centered cookbook by Katie Shelly. Instead of writing out the text instructions for recipes, the instructions are explained and simplified with illustrations. The book won’t be out until October (!) but I’m definitely going to buy a copy. Click over to Fast Company to see some of the recipes from the book!
