DMBLGIT January 2009 - The Winners

I had so much fun hosting this month's Does My Blog Look Good in This event. Again I discovered many new blogs, I didn't know before. Thanks to the 84 participants for sending in their photos and Andrew for letting me host this month.

And of course a special thank to the wonderful judges Gabriele, Lorraine, Shari and Robert for their time and energy. I hope you had as much fun as I had browsing through the gallery and determining which one is the most drool worthy.

As always there are 6 winners. We - the judges - had to score three main categories: Edibility, Originality, Aesthetics. And then there are three more winners according to the highest score in all categories combined, the overall Winners.

Now let me reveal the winners of DMBLGIT January 2009:

Gabi (guest) - 2. Feb, 09:07

I just noticed...

that the top four photos could also have been nominated for the likes of Sugar High Friday ;-) Okay, I know my addiction for sweets - but the other judges seem to have it also. Or is it just that chocolate always looks so appealing?
