TriniGourmet’s Amazon Hotlist for July 2007!

7 July 2007 248 views One Comment

Wowee, my Gourmet Father’s Day post helped to bring about a MAJOR shakeup in this month’s hotlist. Many old faithfuls have dropped off, and many new entries (mostly kitchen appliances and plants!). Who knew? :) It also looks like the popularity of my Fudgy Chocolate Brownie post has helped Rachael Ray to make her debut on the hotlist. Hehehe, it’s OK, your secrets are safe with me ;)

As always, this list is a monthly compilation of what you all have been clicking on and buying, here on TriniGourmet.com :)
