A custom method in the model could work fine.

If you set a 'get_latest_by' in the Entry Model ->
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/models/get_latest/

Then in the Blog Model define something like:

def last_is_foo(self):
    if Entry.objects.latest().title == 'foo'
        return True
    return False

Adding a CustomManager to that would easily give you back sets.

Getting closer?
