Chocolate and Peanut Butter? Yes.
When I’m not sure what to get a friend for a birthday or special occasion, that’s when I’m glad that I have a certain set of skills to my advantage. By this I mean that I’m able to go on to allrecipes.com (my absolute go-to site for quick and delicious kitchen tested recipes) and find […]
Enlightened: (Seriously) Good-For-You Ice Cream
A couple weeks ago, I got to cover backstage beauty at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show for work. (I know, right? I’m still giddy.) Among all the questions my friends asked me about the experience were 1] Are the models as pretty in person? (Yes!) 2] Are they really as skinny in person? (Yes!) and […]
Henri Bendel’s New York City Trash Can
If there’s one thing never lacking in New York City, it’s the heaping, overflowing cans of trash. New York City Trash Mix from Henri Bendel is far from the gross messes you’re now imagining: it’s actually a clever, tasty treat that’s perfectly packaged in a fun tin trash bin for gifting. This can is (of course,) […]
Bubbakoo’s Burritos: Point Pleasant, NJ
When I first set out to write my review of Bubbakoo’s Burritos, I only expected to rave about their amazing burritos. But since I began writing this post, the Jersey Shore locations were among those cities hit hardest during Hurricane Sandy. The chains of Bubbakoo’s are back up and running, but serving a new purpose […]
God’s Love We Deliver: New York City
Being in New York and New Jersey right now as teams of volunteers are pitching in to help clean up and provide food and shelter for those affected by Hurricane Sandy (thank you!), I’m reminded more than ever of groups that put this much effort into helping people get much needed nutrition all year round. I’d like […]
Fat Witch Bakery: Chelsea Market, New York City
Normally, I would advise you against using the terms “Fat Witch.” It’s not very nice. Except when you’re talking about Fat Witch brownies, which are very, VERY nice. Check out their awesome brownies and get our recommendations for what to pick up!
Chicken Challenge: Can You Make a Whole Chicken? Yes You Can!
Well readers, if you’re anything like me (and I would hope some of you are,) then you have a great admiration for simple hearty cooking. The reason I admire this culinary style is because it works with ingredients that fill you up with a kind of warmth that seems to last hours. If you’re like, […]
Make This Burger! SpongeBob Would Be Proud!
Today I woke up with an intense craving for hamburgers. I debated going to McDonald’s, but decided that the best course of action would be to go grocery shopping like an adult and make my own food at home. The upside would be that I could use the leftovers for food later in the week […]
Food Truck: Hibachi Heaven, New York, NY
If you work a hectic job in a big city like I do, you know that changing up your lunch schedule from day to day is a daunting task on it own. Your lunch has to be three things: 1) cheap, 2) prepped fast, and 3) nearby. It doesn’t even have to taste that great […]
