What Are You Doing Here?

Filed under administrative

I’ve been really into writing about food and not so much into writing about myself lately. WTF, right? If you don’t regularly read donuts4dinner.com, check out the sweets-centered posts from this week, including a review of this:


Also check out my best friend’s really excellent scrapbooking and general-things-that-are-pretty blog, Feast on Scraps. She’s actually been updating it lately, and the results are lovely.

    Daaaaang, I want to crunch on the sugar-sprinkles on that cupcake.

    And thanks for the blog-love! Don’t forget that you post there, too!

    • Sprinkles are really underrated in my life. I found some chocolate ones in the cabinet at work the other day and added them to my chocolate ice cream, and OMG. I’m not into nut texture in my ice cream, but apparently I’m into sprinkle texture. You should make me get some in my Graeter’s when I’m home.

      You should pretty much put everything you pin on Pinterest on FoS. And I should post everything I put on Tumblr.

        Dude, Pinterest is WAY easier than blogging. It’s made me into a much lazier person.

        you should open up your own “puddin'” shop in nyc. I think it would catch on :-)

        • It’s funny you say that, because I was just talking to Kamran about the idea this morning. My friend Ash makes AMAZING desserts–like, Aunt-Brenda-level desserts–and I really think she and I should start our own dessert truck. (I would be the marketing and social media guru, obviously.)

          Apparently it’s REALLY hard to get the licenses to be a food vendor in NYC, though, and she already makes a crapload of money at her job, so it might be hard to convince her to quit and start a business with me. Think there’s a need for a dessert truck in Ohio?

  2. Welp, it’s official:

    Pregnancy Craving #1 is bacon.

    • Isn’t it too early for a pregnancy craving? I think this is more like a using-my-pregnancy-as-an-excuse-to-eat-bacon craving. Which I obviously support.

    Yep, it’s official. That cupcake looks every bit as scrumptious the 2nd view around. I think I will bake some cupcakes today – as I am done (hopefully) cleaning up puke.

    TMI TMI TMI!!

    SOrry!

    Just visited your BFFs blog – so clever! I am not good with stamping at all, Tracey’s works are lovely !

    • It must be amazing to live in a world where you can just decide to bake cupcakes one day. For me, it’d be weeks of planning followed by days of dreading going to the store followed by never actually doing it. Hence that pumpkin puree I mentioned to you the other day that’s been sitting in my cabinet for months.

      Hey! Maybe Tracey and I should make your whoopie pies when I visit Ohio next week. She’s as much of a fan as I am.

      • Dishy says:

        YES! That’s perfect! And make sure you take lots of pix and post all about it. You can even have a photo of feeding each other — HAHhahahah — Love the BFFs!!

        If I don’t bake almost daily, the natives get restless. ME TOO.

        :)

    PS: Hahhahaha — just saw Bachelor Girl wrote it’s official above me!! Congrats!! And boy I wish I could eat bacon to my heart’s content. When I was pregnant the second time I craved the oddest thing — thousand Island/Russian dressing. You know, that mix of ketchup, mayo and pickle relish. At least I’m pretty sure that’s what it is. Anyway – I craved the stuff so bad, I wanted to just drink it. My poor husband could barely stomach the sight! LOL

    • Hey, you don’t have to explain the Russian dressing craving to me. I love the stuff. In fact, we’re going to the famed Serendipity 3 for dinner tomorrow night, where I always order this chicken sandwich that comes on the best Irish soda bread. You’re supposed to dip it in their homemade curry vinaigrette, but I always demand loads of Russian dressing instead. If only it wasn’t so terrible for you!
