The above is not an official promo poster for The Fancy Food Show, just my interpretation. It sure feels like I died and went to chocolate peanut butter heaven, though. The Jacob Javits center was transformed into a seemingly endless gourmet market filled with booth upon booth of smiling people handing me delicious food. Really, […]

Tastespotting is back up and running!
For those of you that are unfamiliar with Tastespotting, it is a collection of user submitted food photos that link to blogs and recipes.

This was one of many cupcakes made a couple weeks ago for my sister, a high school math teacher, to give to her students at an end-of-the-year party.

Marie Belle was one […]

How adorable is this? It was made for a kid but as an adult I could eat it too, right? Right?!
This crazy cute sandwich was created as an entry for The Crafty Crow Funny Food Contest. Unfortunately the contest ended yesterday but I think it’s still worth checking the blog out for the voting process […]

Rather than making you read over the weekend here’s a clip for you to watch from Rachel Ray’s daytime show where she demonstrates how to make two dessert sauces from the bottom of the peanut butter jar. The two sauces are a Peanut Butter Chocolate Sauce and Peanut Butter Caramel Sauce.

Hungry Girl: Recipes and Survival Strategies for Guilt-Free Eating in the Real World by Lisa “Hungry Girl” Lillien has some pretty fantastic looking recipes in it. With a small apartment and a full bookshelf, I often toil about purchasing new cookbooks. Why clutter up my apartment when there’s a plethora of new recipes constantly being […]
