Foodbuzz 24, 24, 24: Dining Out in Minnesota: More than Wild Rice, Spam, and Lutefisk

November 29, 2009

Having been in Boston for eight+ years (excluding three summers during college) I am used to people ribbing me when they find out I grew up in Minnesota. First they will generally start speaking to me s-l-o-w-l-y in an exaggerated Minnesota accent á la Fargo, the movie. They will then often inquire whether I ever [...]

Delicata Squash and Parsnip Baked Pasta

November 23, 2009

Tis’ the season for pumpkin and squash recipes around the blogosphere.  Shannon’s Savory Pumpkin Bread Pudding was a hit at the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival, Jen’s Spicy Pumpkin and Peanut Curry reminds me of my favorite Tibetan dish, and Hannah’s Delicata Panna Cottas demonstrate that pumpkin isn’t the only winter squash that can get a sweet [...]

The lovely Shannon of Tri to Cook gave me a Beautiful Blogger Award.  Thanks Shannon!  The award stipulates that I share seven things about myself and pass it along to another seven bloggers.  Since I’m home at my parents’ house for Thanksgiving and blogging from the bedroom I lived in for my teenage years as [...]

Day 2, Part 2: Foodbuzz Blogger Festival

November 22, 2009

And now for the second half of day two at Foodbuzz Blogger Festival: It’s been almost two weeks since the end of the festival. I’m glad I waited to write this post because writing about it is like reliving it and it can feel like once the post is written the reminiscing is over. To [...]

Mission Minis’ Cinnamon Horchata Cupcakes

November 17, 2009

One of the smartest decisions I made at the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival was to ask the Mission Minis cupcake staff if they would care to share a recipe with me and my readers. I was expecting the answer to be no. Given how delicious their cupakes were I figured that perhaps they were made from [...]

Chocolate-Chocolate Whoopie Pies with Whipped Chevre Filling

November 13, 2009

It’s been a long time (too long) since I posted my last Fromage Fridays entry, since the end of August in fact.  Fret not, I’m just as in love with cheese as ever, life has just gotten in the way of me exploring it as much as I would like.  When I saw the Chavrie [...]

Day 2, Part 1: Foodbuzz Blogger Festival

November 8, 2009

My day two, part one, recap of the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival comes from seat 30C as I make my way back to Boston. I was sad to see the event come to an end this morning, but also entirely grateful for the opportunity. As I found myself saying a lot this weekend, “I don’t know [...]

Blogger Festival: Day One Recap

November 7, 2009

It was nice to wake up to this view this morning after a great first night at the FoodBuzz Blogger Festival.  I’m also really enjoying the time difference because I woke up naturally at 7 am.  I almost feel like a morning person.  Anyway, enough about this morning, let’s talk about last night. The evening [...]

Pinch Me – My Arrival in San Fran for the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival

November 6, 2009

It’s still very surreal to me that I am in San Francisco for the Foodbuzz Blogger Festival. I cannot thank my sponsor Bertolli and Foodbuzz enough.  I rarely win anything so I am glad that the rare time I did get lucky it was something like this.  The opportunity to be here is doubly wonderful [...]
