Seeing Stars and CPB at The Fancy Food Show

August 30th, 2010

Yep, that’s me chillin with Ina Garten at NYC’s Fancy Food Show. We’re like totally BFF!
Actually, I may or may not have run up to her like a hysterical fan, babbled that I’ve seen every episode of every show she’s ever done and had Taste Tester snap this awkward photo. I also had brief (and […]

Happy National Peanut Butter Lovers Month!

November 13th, 2009

In honor of National Peanut Butter Month, Yelp’s New York City Weekly Newsletter was all about peanut butter. I was of course happy to read a newsletter about one of my favorite ingredients, only to find that I was in it! They featured a review I had written about one of my favorite nyc cupcakeries, […]

A-Rod Wins at Brooklyn Kitchen’s 3rd Annual Cupcake Cookoff

May 12th, 2009

Taste Tester found out about Brooklyn Kitchen’s Third Annual Cupcake Cookoff on Friday, three days in advance. Given the short notice, my immediate reaction was not to bother with it because there wasn’t enough time to prepare. But after a little more coaxing and a bit of obsessing over what kind of chocolate peanut butter […]

Photos From The National Peanut Board’s Peanut Tasting - Coming Soon!

March 18th, 2009

After writing that I didn’t have many pictures from The NPB’s Peanut Tasting Event, a few people kindly contacted me with photos of various products that were served or given out in goodie bags at the event. So sorry for the delay in postings, but I’ve been busy writing big long posts about said products […]

The National Peanut Board’s Peanut Tasting Event in NYC

March 10th, 2009

On Wednesday March 4th, the National Peanut Board held a tasting event in NYC. Sometimes I really love living in NYC because where else would there be an event to honor peanuts during which they serve only foods made with peanuts?
The tasting took place downtown at the Astor Center. It was the first event […]

A Blogiversary Gift

February 25th, 2009

What better way to celebrate CPB’s one year b-day than with some awards! I’ve seen cute little awards like these all over other people’s blogs but have never received one myself. I am honored and humbled that Sweet Treats Dani chose me and am happy to spread the love to other blogs that I very […]

Cupcakes Get Political

November 4th, 2008

I know this isn’t a political blog, but it feels too weird to sit and write about chocolate and peanut butter and not address what’s happening in our country. My topic of interest will go back to normal and The Atlanta Cupcake Tour will conclude in my next post.
It’s clear that I’m not the […]
