I’m honored to have partnered with GoodBite and Quaker Oatmeal, along with several other bloggers to raise up to $25,000 for Share Our Strength. We’re about halfway there in meeting our goal of $25,000, which will translate to 75,000 meals for hungry children in America. You don’t need to donate any of your own money. [...]
Update: This project has concluded and was an amazing success! 1818 books sold, with a total of $47,166.00 (including the Canadian government’s matching donation) going to Haiti relief. Thanks everyone for your purchases!
I’m so thrilled with how this all turned out that I can hardly stand it. Just three weeks ago, my blogging friend Julie [...]
I’m excited to share with you a video project I’ve been working on with Quaker and GoodBite to help raise up to $25,000 for Share Our Strength, a charity devoted to ending childhood hunger in America. Chef Dave teaches me a new way to jazz up my oatmeal, which has been daily fare for me in the midst [...]
The moment this conference was announced, I started saving my pennies. I was lucky enough to attend Food Blogger Camp last week featuring some experts in the field of food writing. And the best part?… it was held in Mexico at Club Med Ixtapa. My family tagged along, and we called it a quasi- vacation. I [...]
I’ve been a bit remiss in visiting blogs of the Ten in ‘10 Participants this week but I hope you’ll understand… I’ve been in Mexico attending a food blogger’s conference/vacation. It’s tough to find time for the computer when you’re in a hot & humid climate where all you want to do is lounge around in a beach [...]
Have you had the pleasure of meeting Lyle yet?
Lyle’s Golden Syrup, that is. It’s pure heaven. It’s not anything like corn syrup, so don’t even think of trying to substitute. It has the texture of very thick honey and the flavor of toasted brown sugar. I’ve seen it called for in recipes many times, but [...]
One of the goals for my healthy look at 2010 is to bake nutritious things without losing the flavor and satisfaction of eating something really evil. I plan on using a lot more whole grains and very little white flour in my quest to be sporting a bikini by summer. Oat flour, a hearty whole-grain [...]

This contest is now closed. Congrats to the ten winners listed below- all chosen randomly via www.random.org!
#51 Molly “I love Pioneer Woman cooks. But, if I can’t find a recipe I am specifically looking for, I usually go to allrecipes.com. I like reading the reviews.”
#66 Fran www.FrantasticFood.com “My 1st resource is my Google Reader feed [...]
Admittedly, I’m not a regular reader of The Pioneer Woman’s food blog. I’ve read it more than a handful of times, and I’ve been impressed with what I’ve seen, but I don’t read it daily. Clearly, Ree Drummond is witty and fun and her personality easily shines through in her writing. She is adored by thousands (maybe millions) [...]
I have the pleasure of introducing a brand new cookbook today- one that was written by Fellow Food Blogger Beth Lipton (Cookie Pie blog): You Made That Dessert? Create Fabulous Treats, Even if You Can Barely Boil Water.
Currently a magazine editor, Beth is also a trained pastry chef based in New York who has created 100 simple-yet-sophisticated [...]
My husband was at Starbucks on a business trip recently and ordered a Mocha. When he reached into his pocket to pay, the cashier told him it was taken care of. “Really?” he asked. “By whom?” The cashier pointed to an older lady standing off to the side. My husband approached the woman and thanked [...]
I received a little free product-goodie in the mail recently from a company in Illinois- Country Bob’s.
Here’s a little snippet from their company’s site:
How does anything really good get its start? Where do great products come from? Usually they are the result of much time being exerted and a tremendous amount of love being invested. [...]
If you’re lucky enough to have a Trader Joe’s in your neck of the woods, you will agree that they have some awfully good products. And the fun part about shopping there is that you’re always discovering new ones.
Now, I’m not much of a frozen-food kinda gal at all. But Trader Joe’s has some frozen [...]
