*Simply Scratch* 40 Tasty Restaurant Websites to Inspire You Restaurant websites are a great place to find inspiring designs and also to check out some nice ways of displaying photographs within a design.

So for this post, I’ve rounded up 40 Tasty Restaurant Websites to Inspire You. You’ll notice that these restaurant web designs use images in a variety of ways to put the focus where it needs to be. Whether it’s a full background or in a slideshow, the images make it all about the food.

A fruitful search: recipes on the internet Earlier this year Google launched a new recipe search in the UK, having guinea-pigged it in America and Japan. This proves what you've surely noticed: that more and more people are using the internet to help them decide what to cook. Blogs, aggregators of chefs' recipes and online compendiums of family cooking are snatching at the apron-tails of magazines and cookbooks. It's an exciting but bewildering time. The quality of recipes online varies wildly and blindly: from America, de facto ruler of the English-language internet, gushes a twee slew of cupcakes, anodyne renderings of international food, and "50 ways with a jar of marinara". The situation is little better here, where literally a squillion blogs publish endless quiche recipes and where, on the same website, sensitive methods from Mike Robinson jostle with the slapdash culinary zeugmas of Ready Steady Cook. Epicurious AllRecipes Another huge site, with over 100,000 "likes" on Facebook. Food Network Blogs Simply Recipes.
Rosa's Yummy Yums All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on.- Havelock Ellis Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.- Chinese Proverb Taking things easy isn't all that evident if you are trapped in a lethal routine or somebody who has a bad conscience for staying at home all day long like a kept woman and not being the one who is obliged to go to the "salt mine".

A perfect summer day is when the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, the birds are singing, and the lawn mower is broken.- James Dent Deep summer is when laziness finds respectability.- Sam Keen Summer is the ideal time for slacking and decompressing as most folks are absent and our melting brains are on a holiday modus.

smitten kitchen Ingredients That Changed My Life | The Dabble As I was preparing dinner the other night, I began to mentally jot down the ingredients that made an impact on how Greg and I eat today. I counted four in the dish I was making. Four that up until a few years ago I hadn’t heard of and many I didn’t think were at my grocery store (they are there if you check the right places). Ingredients that changed our lives. Granted, I am a woman from a small town in Indiana who moved to another small town in Minnesota (with a few years of bigger city living mixed in). I’m no stranger to chain restaurants, living paycheck to paycheck, being a picky eater as a youngster, I didn’t grow up in a gourmande family, and most stores in the area where I lived over the last 30 years didn’t have some of the ingredients that others think nothing to go out to the corner store and bring home. They may not be groundbreaking or perhaps it’s the opposite and you think me some fancypants chef (ha). Not just for me but for my family, for Greg. So finally, here they are.

Recipe of the Day, Great Recipes, Easy Cooking Recipes Easy Baked Pork Chops with White Wine–Mustard Sauce Recipe Difficulty:Easy | Total Time: | Makes:2 servings Pork chops have a reputation for being dry, tough, and flavorless, but this two-part cooking method of searing on the stovetop and finishing in the oven ensures a brown crust and a juicy center; plus, you only use one pan. Deglazing the pan with white wine makes a flavorful base out of the porky bits (a.k.a. fond) left after the chops are done, for an easy pan sauce. Once the sauce is reduced, tangy Dijon mustard, butter, and fresh parsley are whisked in. What to buy: Ask your butcher for pork chops of the same relative size and thickness so that they cook evenly and in the same amount of time.
