strawberries

It was decidedly un-summerish yesterday so we fought back by eating strawberries and overexposing photographs. I drove home with these on the dashboard and they made my whole car smell like strawberries. We don't plan on having any strawberries left over but if we did I would definitely make this Strawberry Conserve [1] seen over at Orangette.

My Badass Perforated (aka Egg) Spoon

For our anniversary Scott [1] got me The Badass Perforated (aka Egg) Spoon [2]. It's made to allow the runny bits of egg white separate so you can make a tidy looking poached egg. It works! [1] http://www.scottandrew.com [2] http://ruhlman.com/2011/02/egg-poaching/

Strawberry Pizza

This weekend we visited a neighborhood favorite of ours, Flying Squirrel Pizza Company [1], and one of their specials was this pizza called The Strawberry Alarm: "An experiment that exceeded all expectations! This is soon to be one of our classics. Tomato sauce, mozzarella, Salumi coppa, organic strawberries, Laura Chenel goat cheese, and chopped walnuts. Spicy and sweet and incredible." It is good, and really interesting. The strawberries add a bit of sweetness, like with fig pizzas. It made me wonder if a strawberry and basil pizza would work out too.

May Birthday Giveaway: CakeSpy Presents Sweet Treats for a Sugar-Filled Life

[1] What?s going on here? My site started ten years ago this month and to celebrate I?m giving away something each weekday. Because I like you. Todays giveaway is coming to you from the future. Well, sort of. Jessie Oleson, whom you might know as CakeSpy [2], has a book coming out later this year (late September is the most informed date I have heard, things change but this might not!) it's called CakeSpy Presents Sweet Treats for a Sugar-Filled Life [3] and she is happy to send a copy to one lucky winner. Just, you know, in September when the book actually exists. CakeSpy, as if you don't already know, is lover of all things sweet, purveyor of the history behind our favorite desserts, a most excellent illustrator with a certain favorite character (Cuppie, pictured here [4]), has a column [5] at Serious Eats, a real brick and mortar shop [6] here in Seattle, and a rabble rouser when it comes to the question of Cake vs. Pie [7]. If you'd like to win a (future) copy of the CakeSpy book just lease a comment with this post, and if you'd like please answer this question: Are you Team Pie or Team Cake? I hereby publicly declare myself Team Cake, pies are great but cake has a power I cannot deny. Ok, you've got until Saturday, May 21st at 10 a.m. PST to enter, the fine print [8], as always, applies. Good luck. Closed, thanks for entering! [1] http://www.amazon.com/CakeSpy-Presents-Sweet-Treats-Sugar-Filled/dp/157061756...
