Yummy Links

Posted on by

Why not have a mid-week roundup of my latest favorite links?

Serious Eats calls themselves “the first website for serious eaters”- and although I don’t necessarily agree (I mean, what about Chowhound?), I’m fast becoming addicted to this site that features blogs, photos and videos on food.

Yahoo Food has quickly become a daily visit for me. I must say I’m loving a lot of what Yahoo’s been doing lately. On their Food section, I’m particularly enamoured by their list of “Recipes people want NOW”- which, right now, has salmon, eggnog, soup, brownies, and salsa as the top five.

Fancy Toast is a blog I’ve just discovered, and yay! The photos are gorgeous, the writing is entertaining, and- oh, it just makes me hungry. Always a good sign. Also, I can relate to the latest post praising husbands who bake… I’m another lucky, lucky girl.

Seriously good: Haagen Dazs Tiramisu

TiramisuWas feeling a little blue yesterday, so we stopped at the convenience store on the way home, and got half a pint of Haagen-Dazs Tiramisu ice cream. Oh god, it’s delicious. And I don’t even like ice cream.

Picture it: huge chunks of fudge, cookie pieces soaked in kahlua, and sweet, creamy mascarpone… mmm.

Best of all, of course, was eschewing bowls or ice cream scoops, and just digging into the carton with our spoons. There’s just something romantic and a little wicked about it.
