Cake Smitten

This afternoon I was hit by a massive, arresting, tidal wave of hunger. Lunch and every snack I could get my hands on did nothing. I had no tv handy, so the Food Network was out of the question. I opted instead to go through almost the entire Flickr photostream of my absolute favorite cooking blog, Deb and Alex's Smitten Kitchen. You know, 'cause I have nothing to do right? No weddings coming this weekend or anything like that. But a girl can't work when she's got food on the brain! While I was practically salivating I found this sweet little photo set for Deb's Project Wedding Cake. For a friend's wedding Deb created what looks like a scrumptious cake made up of chocolate and vanilla layers, that somehow involves chocolate ganache, mango curd and swiss buttercream frosting. I love homemade-looking wedding cakes. And I guess it was somewhat work-related. You know, research. Mmmmm.

I know what your thinking, there's no way looking at these gorgeous shots of sumptuous food satisfied my hunger.
But really, you couldn't be more wrong. It's soothing. Pleasing to the senses.

Enjoyable?
Agreeable?
Sigh. To hell with it.
You win Deb.The finished product was quite lovely, don't you think? Now if you'll excuse me, there have to be some cookies around here somewhere.

Title: Jonny Collins (Modesty Blaise), 'Girls Just Want to Dance', The Croft, Bristol 7.11.10

The ridiculously charming Jonny Collins of Modesty Blaise sang a handful of wonderful songs with his sweet, high voice. He's exactly what you'd want when seeing a solo performer - a big, adorable personality, a lovely voice, fun songs, and lots of stories to tell. I had no idea what to expect but was completely smitten! This song also had the audience singing along which was even more fun. Aw!

Title: Ice Cream and Cake

Like most folks who have seen the Baskin Robbins "Ice Cream and Cake" commercials, I became smitten, to the point of obsession, and was finally driven to create my own, albeit brief, tribute. Enjoy!
