[Blogger] How to Set up Sub Categories?

I'd like to know whether it is possible to create categories in Blogger as it is the case in Typepad. For instance, I'd like to gather my restaurants reviews in a category called "reviews", the recipes in "recipes" and so on. Is there a simple way to do that ? Thanks everyone.

Here is all I have been able to find out about it - the solution is VERY clunky

(setup up separate blogs for each category, then post to the sub-category and have blogger's email forwarding automatically post it on to the main blog)

I make a new blog (in the same style as my main one) for each category. Then link to said new blogs on my index. Then each blog makes up a further series of links through posts and indexes

just as clunky.

but there is another way which (pull down menues) whichyou can see on Grab your fork and Cooking with Amy which I hope to find out how to do next.

Happy to share the Blogger code for drop down menus which is how I handle categories. Since it's so hard to post code in the comments, send me an email or leave a comment here and I will send you the code.

Hi Amy, it's months later, so I don't know if you'll even see this, but I'd love to get the code for drop down menus.

I'm just a baby blogger (not even at it one month) and need all the help I can get in organizing my categories so that people can read what they're interested in.
