You like tea.  You like sharks.  You're gonna' love this shark tea infuser, especially if you pair it with a nice bright red rooibos tea. And yes, you're welcome.  :)

It's peach season and you know what that means...  cobbler, pie and unabashed devouring of the fuzzy little glowing orbs. But here's a slightly more eloquent way to take on these peachy beauties:  poached peaches in wine with basil.  Yes. Yes. Yes.  (HT Bon Appetit blog)

As much as I adore 'real life coming in the mail and flip through delicious physical pages' magazines, I appreciate the Web-based ones too. Fewer trees sacrificed, less concern on me forgetting to check the mail (ahem) and less stuff for me to stack on my bookshelves and dust around later (I am physically incapable of throwing away magazines apparently). I just ...

Okay, okay - I get that the brand name 'Field Roast Grain Meat Co.' may not exactly be making your mouth water right now.  But if you were in my kitchen when I was frying some up, it'd be a whole different story. Behold the only pre-made vegan meat substitute (besides tofu) that I plan on allowing in our house.  Fantastic ...

I have long pitied the poor souls with an aversion towards mushrooms.  Delicious, meaty, chewy little healthy morsels that they are.  So versatile, such great texture - what a treat. This weekend's farmer's market exploration brought a veritable cloud of yellow oyster mushrooms into our kitchen - grown only a few miles away.  We brought home around about 1/3 of a ...

While I am a vodka, soda and lime girl first and foremost (Tito's Vodka, thank you very much) - I do love to indulge in the occasional sweet pink silliness that is a Cosmopolitan.  No shame here, folks. This completely precious over-the-Cosmo-rim lime cookie recipe from The Decorated Cookie blog brings a slew of new excuses to sip on something martini ...

Surely you knew this would HAVE to exist at some point. With more of the world getting feisty in the kitchen and even more of the world obsessed with obscene cuteness (hello LOLcats, cuteoverload and zooborns),  there was no question that a site like EpiCute would come to be. EpiCute is a blog for cute food.  Yup.  Food that is tiny, silly, ...

I don't know what the deal is this week, but I have found no less than 4 posts talking about Japanese KitKat bar tasting.  Some old, some new.  'Tis the season much?  Apparently so. All the hubbub has got me inspired to get myself down to our local Japanese Grocery (Nippan Daido) and stuff my gullet with green tea / orange ...

I just need to vent here for a second. Whatever lunch lady jerk that decided forcing kids to eat their veggies by serving them disgusting frozen florets should be beaten with a bag of crystallized broccoli.  Most American kids have an early onset of 'oooohhhh <enter vegetable that has been raped and ridiculed by lunchroom preparation here> is groooooss' syndrome.  And ...

The creme de la creme of the food blogosphere this week: From last month, but still awesome - Jonti points out 10 sustainable food peeps to watch VeganDad gives out some handy pointers on baking vegan croissants Slaw done the right way (that is, sans the goopy and fatty mayo) by Smitten Kitchen Slashfood features one of Natalia Rose's concoctions - kale lemonade (mmmmm...)
