A family that foods together stays together… or something. This is our first year celebrating Halloween with Cayenne and probably the last time (before she starts talking) where we can do whatever we want with her for the dressing up portion. We took that opportunity to play on her name, and hence you’re a pepper, […]

Happy Halloween!
Our friend Marcos gave us an adorable little Halloween book, Goulish Goodies. If I got the story correctly, Marcos’ wife is a teacher and one of her students’ mother is the author, Sharon Bowers. It’s full of great ideas for Halloween treats, many that you can do with kids, and there’s enough in there […]

I walked by this restaurant and had to take a picture. I think the word they were looking for is unique?
Gingerbread Designs
Monday, December 22, 2008
After our Gingerbread Station was made, we had some gingerbread left-over, tons of candy, and tons of royal icing.

I baked off the gingerbread in […]

Although sometimes the cycle spins way out of control.
Vacuum Sealed Drummette, Chicken Feet, and Duck Feet!
Sunday, August 10, 2008
My friend, Lily, brought some rather interesting treats back from China for me: packaged meats? They were all individually vacuum sealed, making me wonder if people in China brought these with them as snacks. You could easily toss one in your purse. It could even fit in your pocket.
Lon was only willing to try the […]
On Difficult to Eat Food
Monday, February 25, 2008
Jessica and I often talk about how some people seem to particularly enjoy eating hard-to-eat food while others strongly prefer easy-to-eat foods. Enjoyable, Randall Munroe, who writes one of my favorite webcomics, xkcd, published a graph on this very topic!
Make sure to check out the full comic on it’s page: http://www.xkcd.com/388/
This inspired me to […]
Philosophy in Margarine
Saturday, January 19, 2008
From hilarious blog, Tweebiscuit.net (which advertises the tag line: “Your Funeral.”) comes a great statement of philosophy as accidentally created by a combination of marketing gurus as various margarine manufacturers plus the divine reach through the hands of a supermarket shelving clerk.
