POTATO CANAPES WITH A CHEESY TOPPING…O Foods for Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month
“The potato, like man, was not meant to dwell alone.” Shila Hibben Read a post by Michelle @ Bleeding Espresso about Gina DePalma, 2008 Bon Appetit award-winner for best Pastry Chef. Life is becoming just so unpredictable. A few months ago, Michelle found that Gina was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and was undergoing a whirlwind of treatment. So a few of the girls (from the Dolce Italiano contest held last year) got together to do something for Gina. In honor of Gina DePalma, author of Dolce Italiano: Desserts from the Babbo Kitchen and Executive Pastry Chef of Babbo Ristorante in NYC, who was recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer, Sara of…

POPPY IN MY LIME COOKIES…COOKIES WITH ZEST!
“Through the dancing poppies stole A breeze most softly lulling to my soul.” John Keats When we were little girls , many many moons ago, a favourite winter pass-time was to make little dolls out of the bright red poppies that grew in our garden. The petals would fold down to make bright red dresses, & the capsule on top would look just like the head. Gave us hours of fascinating pleasure, whiling away time with silliness of this sort. Cut back to now…a bag of black poppy seeds has been demanding my attention from time to time. In India we get a lot of white poppy seeds, known also…

ADDICTED TO FOOD BLOGGA’S ADDICTION…A BEAUTIFUL PEACH & PLUM GALETTE!
“We should look for someone to eat and drink with before looking for something to eat and drink…” Epicurus Galette a la Plums & Peaches! If someone said to me that they made a galette, I would just nod & get on my way, maybe wouldn’t even bat an eyelid! Never heard of something like that before (seriously I haven’t, even if that means you think I live under a rock!). Now if someone showed me a picture of a galette they baked, & if that someone had the word addiction in the blog post, & if that someone was the ever so talented Food Blogga gal, it would grab…

TAGS, AWARDS & A TON OF THANKS!
“A photograph is like the recipe – a memory the finished dish. “ Carrie Latet It’s been a while that I was tagged to do post my top 10 foodie photographs from my blog. When I first got the tag from Farida @ Azarbaijani Cookbook I was thrilled. This was something just me…’say it with pictures’. Tags in general remind me of my dear friend Manggy@ No Special Effects where he claims ‘all tags come to die’. This tag was special & challenging. Clicking away to glory is my next best therapeutic pleasure after cooking or baking, & I’m still trying to squeeze the life out of my old faithful…

CREAMY HOME-MADE MANGO ICE-CREAM…ON A CALCIUM HIGH!
