Every once in awhile I’ll get a question about how I take my food pictures. I always feel that a comment reply or a tweet aren’t descriptive enough. Everyday I’m inspired by other food photographers and food bloggers and I am extremely humbled to hear, read and see that I’ve inspired others. I appreciate all the comments and support that I get from blog viewers. There is this quote from Maya Angelou that resounds in my head; she simply says,”When you get – give!” Basically this is my way of giving back, after all the support and acknowledgements that I’ve received from blog viewers, Twitter followers and Facebook comments. http://theboogieblog.net/2011/03/29/food-photography-tips/
http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/ Before I share my fourth and final grilling recipe, I’m busting at the seams to announce the winners of the Bush’s Grillin’ Beans /Pioneer Woman Recipe Contest! The following four winners and their guests will travel to the ranch next month for a big, bad cookout! Let me also say that I, Ree Drummond, being of sound mind and body (relatively speaking), read every single recipe. I’m not sure what the exact final tally was, but it was somewhere in the 1,300 or 1,400 range.

Twix Cheesecakes – Gingerbread Bagels

http://gingerbreadbagels.com/2011/06/30/twix-cheesecakes/ In my humble opinion, desserts and candy belong together. Butterfingers make cupcakes a little more intriguing , blondies filled with peanut butter cups are even more irresistible , gummy worms taste better when they’re coming out of a cupcake and Twix in cheesecake….well that just makes me drool. How can I not drool when one of my favorite desserts, mini cheesecakes, are combined with my #3 favorite candy in the entire universe? Yes my friends, Twix are my #3 favorite candy.

I love duck. I have always felt that it’s an acquired taste for most people, but I can remember enjoying it even at a young age. My first memory of duck was eating it with my dad and my brothers at a Chinese restaurant when we lived in California. My mom was out of town, visiting my grandmother in Canada, I believe, so my dad took us all out for dinner, which we adored, of course. My dad always, and I mean ALWAYS, orders too much food, but I’ve got no problem with it whatsoever. It’s fun to see a table completely full of mouthwatering dishes, just waiting to be eaten, plus, when you go out with my dad, you are guaranteed to go home with a plethora of leftovers to enjoy as a late night snack (which I am most guilty of) or for breakfast/lunch/dinner the next day (doubly guilty). http://crepesofwrath.net/
This one is personal. Four years, five months and 19 days ago, I was bested by this quiche and as noted by the detailed date count, I may not be over it. Worse, it wasn’t even the quiche that bested me, but the crust. A flaky shell with even more fragility-enhancing butter than a standard pie dough, it was twice as big as a regular quiche shell, and then, instead of letting you press it into a shallow tart pan, it was draped inside the towering (okay, three-inch) walls of an open-hinged 9-inch springform ring. Without a base.

Cake balls, cake pops, cakesicles — have you tried them? They swept the internet like a tidal wave over the last few years, thanks in part to the delightful and amazing creations of Bakerella and other creative cooks. We finally decided to try them, and while ours don't achieve the heights of more talented confectionery artists, they tasted pretty darn good! Cake pops are basically little smushed balls of cake and frosting (kind of like when you used to smash your birthday cake all in pieces, maybe with ice cream, and eat it as goop). You bake up a cake, let it cool, tear it into fine crumbs, stir in something to hold it all together, and roll it in balls. Easy!

http://www.kevinandamanda.com/recipes/ My absolute favorite dinners are the easy weeknight kind. The kind that can be whipped up in thirty minutes or less from start to finish and only mess up one dish. And of course, they need to knock-my-socks-off with flavor as well! I am so in love with this spicy, creamy, cheesy pasta for all of those reasons. It is just packed with so many incredible flavors. It’s one of our new favorites — I make it all the time because it’s so yummy and easy!

We have been stocking on the bounty of Spring produce left and right lately. Strawberries, peas, rhubarb, ronde de Nice , baby Vidalias , etc... The farmers market is in full swing and my mind is buzzing with photographs to take of all this beauty. It was torture however these past two weeks to cook for two and only one could eat. Yes, I had mild complications from the tooth extraction and for two weeks I was barely able to finish a bowl of soup.

Atlanta’s Food Blogger Bake Sale – The Recap! Running With Tweezers

It's been another busy week of work and travel…and I wish I had gotten this post up sooner. I didn't want to just throw something up and call it done. This was a very special event for me and the outcome of Atlanta's first ever Food Bloggers Bake Sale was quite remarkable. It was a gorgeous morning. Lots of folks came out to both help, visit and do some shopping. In the end, our little ol' bake sale raised over $1600 , all of which goes to Share Our Strength !
