Still bouncing off my summer buzz of everything USA—Team USA, 4th of July, vacas to Vermont, Newport and Colorado, and a recent bike ride over the bridge and into Billyburg for spectacular soul food at Pies ‘n’ Thighs—I decided to co-host a polka-dot themed girl’s night with my Tribe. Using Nini’s apartment and my fervor [...]

Guiltless Angel(Food)
It’s here! It’s the Morning After video recipe of me making Guiltless Angel(food) French Toast. Guiltless because there’s no fat in the cherry angelfood cake and no shame in sharing breakfast in bed with my surprise Valentine! I’ll give you my fat-free cake recipe next week, but for now, click on the video screen above [...]

Food Porn
Food is a seductive sensory experience. First senses being taste and smell, of nearly equal importance, but presentation is a close third in the race to wow your dining crowd. Sight’s a big one when it comes to food. What’s that old adage? We eat with our eyes first. And when grocery shopping, above all else, [...]

Sara’s Food Fantasies for ‘08
Dear Mom (I’m twenty-eight and Jewish don’t believe in Santa. Sorry kids). In the immortal words of Christina Aguilera: ‘What a girl wants; what a girl needs”
1. A pina colada. I don’t care if they’re not seasonal. They’re delicious and they make me feel like I’m twenty-one again.
2. An insulated thermos. “Why not dream bigger?” you might [...]

Erin’s Food Fantasies for ‘08
Dear Santa,
It goes without saying that all I really want for Christmas is my man, my fam, and to be edited back into that Macy’s ad I shot with P. Diddy! Of course, if you need more suggestions, I’d adore:
1. For Brach’s Candy Corn to be sold year-round
2. A fondue party with the entire Tribe
3. [...]

Amanda’s Food Fantasies for ‘08
Dear Santa,

1. A ticket back East, for a birthday dinner with my bitches!
2. [...]

Brooklyn Bash, by Erin
Wasn’t last night amazing, you guys?! Thanks for coming to my party and meeting my new housemates! I know Kimberly and Celest don’t undertake a trek to Brooklyn lightly, but it was worth it, no? I was so honored that a Sara/Maggie dance-off would happen in my own living room! But man, Kimberly, [...]

Postcards From a Day of Giving Thanks
Sara (from Chicago) :
Thanksgiving a la Barron:
Two notable traditions were carried on this year:
1) The Barron Family Walk. My mother forces my brother, father and me on a two-hour-long walk around our neighborhood prior to our Thanksgiving dinner. “Why?” you may ask? Is it scenic? Not especially. Do we pay a visit to old friends? We do [...]
