A few of you know that I can actually cook and even though I don't post often enough about food... I really do love food, so how can I pass up on not sharing this wonderful recipe for Chocolate-Dipped Beer Marshmallows? Yes and I bet it taste amazing. Well, if I have the urge to try and make them, I'll document the process and post the results.
Never Said About Restaurant Websites is a genius blog dedicated to sarcastically thanking restaurants for "obscuring your food with horrible websites." If you have to eat out a lot because of your job you will understand.
“I like when the music blasts as soon as the site loads. It signals to everyone at work that I am going out to eat!”
“Why would anyone want to skip this intro? I think I’ll watch it again.”
“Well of course hours will be located on the Contact Us page. I’d be foolish to look anywhere else!”
"Tip #12. Learn to cook. Learn to cook well. I see now that it would have won me a lot of points. A LOT."
It's true. I really do appreciate any woman who can cook and do it well.
So the saying, "The best way to a man's heart is through his stomach," actually holds substance. Just remember that it will get your foot in the door, but it won't keep you there. Confidence, support and good conversation are key in any relationship.
But we are talking about cooking... so ladies never tell a man you can't or don't like cooking unless you REALLY CAN'T cook. This is a red flag and makes you seem lazy. All you need to know is how to cook like 3 dinner type meals well enough so that they are edible. Plus, there is enough spices out there to season it differently every time. My suggestions would be chicken breast, flat bread pizza and beef casserole. These can be made in 30-45 minutes, easily.
Also, make him help you cook (or keep you company) and clean the dishes together. You can even drink wine if you want to turn things up. Plus, I've noticed that conversation flows easy by the time you're drying pots. You may even only cook for him once, but trust me... you won't only score points, but you'll place well on the "Wifey Scorecard."
"Is it because the cliché saying that, “the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach,” is true? Definitely. Is it because a woman who can cook reminds them of their mom? Sure. But at the core of all those truths lies something simpler — men love women who can cook because it means that their family will be taken care of." -- The Reason Men Love Women Who Cook
To the ChefStack Automatic Pancake Machine. Yes this is a brilliant invention. It cooks them so fast! I can eat pancakes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I wonder if it can do chocolate chips and blueberries?
I'm a sucker for chocolate and coconut. Almond Joys are like my favorite candy of all time and these look SUPER DELICIOUS! I so want to find them! It's my new life goal to try Coconut M&M's!
A Perfect Flavor sounds like the most wonderful idea for a summer vacation for your taste buds! The Cold Stone near me closed down and the Baskin-Robbins seems to far away. So yes I will gladly create my own ice cream but... isn't this a free country?
So I shouldn't have to pay $100+ to be able to create my own ice cream?! Oh well, guess I'm sticking with Butter Pecan which suits me fine. "So you’ll scream for Perfect Flavor, a new online ice cream shop that lets you create your own pints. Begin by choosing a base: mousse, sweet cream, cheesecake, French custard, sorbet, or gelato. Follow by selecting a flavor for the chosen medium: chocolate, vanilla, coffee, or caramel...(Note: Choose wisely as you are committed to four pints of the concoction.)" -- DailyCandy
I never blog about restaurants or non tech/t-shirt stores, but this looks so wonderful I had to spread the word. So if anyone wants to send me a "Small Sampler Gift Box" for $20, don't let anything stop ya!
"In 1995, The Crispery was founded by me...my name is Vicki Mate. Its creation was due to the fact that I was a mom who had a strong passion for marshmallow... yes, marshmallow.... So with my flair for business and a talent in cooking; it was inevitable my mission was to set out to create the most delectable marshmallow crispy bar ever."
I so want one. This screams sweet and delicious in so many ways, but where do you get the sticks?
"I bought this to use as an activity for the kids...and they loved it. The adults loved it too...The pan is so easy to use. You can use cake batter or brownie batter or even cookie batter. We made brownies and cookies because they seem to hold up better on the popcicle sticks." Norpro Nonstick Cake-Sicle Pan -- Amazon.com
When I was a kid having breakfast food for dinner was like the coolest thing ever. My Mom's pancakes and my sister's French toast kicked ass. Every now then I eat eggs and toast for dinner. Actually that's what I did for my 24th birthday. Held a huge breakfast dinner and invited over a bunch of friends. So kudos to breakfast food and Kimberly, it really is the best meal of the day.
"There's nothing like French toast when you feel like you're not supposed to be eating it. And breakfast foods, because they usually involve basics like eggs and bread, are cheap..." Breakfast for Dinner -- US News
