I’ve been down with a nasty cold and a nasty toothache- and that plus the heat equals much less kitchen time for me. Still, the deliciousness goes on in the world of food blogs, and I list for you here my favorites this week:
Being sick always brings forth my sweet tooth somehow, and I swear I’ll make Smitten Kitchen’s Caramel Walnut Upside Down Banana Cake as soon as I can bear to be back in the kitchen for more than five minutes. Seriously, this cake looks like it might even be worth airconditioning my kitchen for.
Then, of course, there’s Christine’s Simple Strawberry Trifle, which just oozes coolness and sweetness and tartness, and looks like the perfect summer snack right there.
My favorite Pioneer Woman has a recipe up for Carrot Sheet Cake with pecans in the icing. I don’t own a sheet cake pan (my oven is too small, sigh), but I’m considering making this in several layers and sandwiching them together with more icing… mmm.
And finally, this one has nothing to do with food, but please see this photo over at Dooce. It’s my favorite photo of the week, maybe the year.
