Endangered Species: Dark Chocolate with Cranberries and Almonds & Mixed Dark Chocolate Bag


Posted by Joanna Miller on Sugar Savvy.
Two varieties from the line of Endangered Species Chocolate were recently sent to review:
1. Dark Chocolate with Cranberries and Almonds

October is National Chili Month


Posted by Robert Fernandez on Get Your Grill On.
I apologize to our readers outside of the United States, but here in America October is National Chili Month. Now I don’t know who declared it National Chili Month but the writers here at Get Your Grill On think it’s a great idea.
Grilling, Barbecue and Chili just […]

Adapting Your Cooking For Low Carb Needs


Posted by Patricia DiGiacomo on Fit Fare.
Since this is my introductory post, I figure I should tell you a little about me. I’m 33, engaged, and planning a wedding in a little less than 3 months. I also work full time with an awful commute. So my cooking time is often limited.
The love of my […]

A Sure Sign of Autumn… Pumpkin Cheesecake!


Posted by Jennifer Tolley on Just Baking.

I’m a huge fan of Fall. I love the changing colors of the leaves. I love the musky smell of piles of leaves wet on the ground. I love the cooler nights and shorter days. I love using it as an excuse to bake lots of things with pumpkin […]

“If You’re Gone”: Cantina


Posted by Ken Walczak on The Spirit World.
The first time I met Rob Thomas of the band Matchbox Twenty, I wanted to punch him in the face. I was not yet 20 at the time, which means he was something like 26 or 27. That second single was all over both of the town’s two […]

That’s Some Mighty Fine Cooking


Posted by Brilynn Ferguson on Paper Palate.

Fine Cooking is one of my favourite food magazines. Not only does it contain gorgeous photos, it also has amazing recipes (anyone for Chocolate Espresso Pecan Pie?), product comparisons and recommendations on which kitchen tool is best (mortars and pestles are highlighted), cooking techniques (a how-to on hearty soups), […]

Lunchology - Why Didn’t We Think of That?


Posted by Cate O’Malley on Kids Cuisine.
It never ceases to amaze me what becomes a big business these days. Things that have certainly crossed our minds more than once… more often than not, it’s a question of actually following through when an idea is hatched, and that’s just what Kristi Thomas, 39, did back in […]

An Absinthe Tasting at Milk and Honey


Posted by Faye Mermey on The Spirit World.
Behind a nondescript, carelessly numbered door with a hidden bell off a grubby residential Lower East Side block lies the height of New York’s faux speakeasies.
Without use of a town car or yellow cab, or a divine LES loft, one must make use of at least two subways […]
