Peppy Nights

Is it the realization that espresso makes you jump into the productive person your always striving to be the very thing that makes a coffee addict just that - addicted to coffee?

Oh my, I hope not... But if it is, at least I'll be productive :)

Pop Pop Pop!

Cake pops. Where have you been all my life?

In recent days my dad's been bringing home yummy food from luncheons at work and such. One of these happened to be cake pops (cheesecake pops, to be exact). I'm so fascinated by the incredibly cute and creative idea i might just have to buy this book to satisfy my craving.
Apparently there's this huge world of pops i never knew about. Pie pops, mini ice pops, cake pops, cheesecake pops, macaroon pops, brownie pops, cookie pops, ice cream pops, it seems like you can make anything in pop form! Oh man, I'm feeling the sugar-induced stomach ache already..

I'm deciding to make attempt to cook up a batch of cheesecake pop's from Bakerella's recipe here. Once i get my hands on some chocolate candy coating, that is. The great thing about her recipe is you don't even have to make a cheesecake, you can just buy one and scoop out the little rounds with a miniature ice cream scooper! Brilliant! Not to mention less time consuming, as i am working on being more industrious.


And I might just have to get these cute headphones to go along with any cupcake pops I make!

A Food Addict Rambling

So yesterday while roaming about in Whole Foods, i was passing by their (wonderful) cheese section and noticed that they finally had the Colston Bassett Stilton back in stock! SO HAPPY!
Oh how i missed this melt-in-your-mouth blue cheese. Its full of flavor, very strong and rich without being too "sharp and overpowering." And its from Neals Yard Dairy no less! "Farm cheese from the British Isles." I would love to visit one of their shops some day, sounds like a dream I'd never want to wake up from.


Anyways, i ended up not only buying lunch but also a sliced loaf of freshly baked sweet batard, and a jar of croatian Organic Adriatic Fig Spread! I absolutely adore this fig spread, just the right amount of sweet to go with my cheese and toasty bread. I wonder where the nearest place to pick figs would be...
