I have never had this but it looks to be an amazing flavor combination.

On my Facebook wall I posted about a cupcake called "Better Than Sex" though several femmes were quick to disagree with that statement. It is a German Chocolate cupcake that involves caramel and whipped cream filling and some chocolate ganache. I will look it up when I am more coherent. Sounded good to me.

Hungry For Change,

This is a documentary that is amazing in and of itself discussing the addiction's to carb's and sugar and it also talks about MSG's and Aspartame, Also discussed in this documentary is the way to help our bodies cleanse of toxins via natural foods.

Interesting viewing.

Do any of you have any favorite birthday or special occasion recipes, restaurants or desserts???

Birthday cake? Icecream cake? Cupcakes?

I have been thinking about this over the course of the last week. I haven't focused much on it, but the idea of picking out a cake is always a serious task. There is so much to choose from! Do you go with your all time favorite or to mark a special milestone or change in your life, do you go with something completely different?

Homemade? Locally made/purchased? Store bought?

I am sorry if this is way off topic but birthdays have always been something I have celebrated for my friends. Only a few times since I was a kid have I really appreicated the meaning for myself. This year I get it. Last year I wanted to but turning 30 is scary and yes I realize it is irrational in a lot of ways. It was celebrated but I dreaded it. I am dreading this one because now it's going to be official. Not 30 anymore but actually INTO the 30's, like the twilight zone? LOL

I am sorry for rambling but I just woke up from a ridiculously sweet 3 hour nap and I had dreams of dancing icecream cones. How appropriate for me to post in here.

Food does play a huge role for birthdays, comes from the heart with love. When all else fails and not sure of a gift to get get food, cake, ice cream ! haha.

I for one enjoy when someone will cook my favorite meal or take me out to one of my fav dining places. I also love cake and ice cream for sure! German chocolate is my favorite of all time. Coworkers shared a birthday in August and we all got a huge cupcake that was german chocolate it was so good and great memory I still have. Also one year instead of cake I asked my then gf to make me some cream pies. She went all out with chocolate and banana ones. A couple big ones then some smaller ones.

For others I tend to take them to their fav dining spot and / or get some cake/cupcakes and ice cream or ice cream cake. I am not one to make cakes so I go out and buy them! But homemade cakes are great and maybe I should look into that in the future.

ruffryder · 03-08-2013, 01:31 PM

Hey all! Been awhile since I been around here. Everything still looks delicious here! Some great topics and I'll for sure be back to post more soon. Gotta run now. Happy eatin' ! Ya'll have a wonderful Friday! I been craving some bbq pork ribs and I think I'll be making some soon..

Thanks so much for replying! I loved reading this

Anything I cook, I do with love and I love food that is fresh and inspired so for special occasions, it just makes sense for me. I still have no idea what to even consider for myself. I might break down and go celebrate alone at a restaurant or cook a well planned meal.

German chocolate is really good! I recently saw german chocolate cupcakes in those chocolate wrapper cups. To die for! Then there's always the coldstone german chocolate icecream cupcakes. The sensory arousal is quite overwhelming lol.

The cake is my biggest hang up right now. There is so much to choose from! I love homemade cakes but honestly, I can't make one for myself that's the least bit satisfying LOL I can make them for others but I am just so picky sometimes about what I cook for myself.

Hola Delicious People!!

Wow this was a very very busy day for me at work. It rained and hailed here, which is so crazy since it was just sunny and 82. So all of the tourists went shopping and out to lunch! We were slammed. High season in Scottsdale. There it is.

I was very happy to get out to my favorite place yesterday and have some fab food, it really helps to put my work into perspective to have cooks that are more talented than I am, cook for me. One thing about cooking professionally is that I do not want to lose my own love of cooking on my down time and that us always a risk. When I come home from work I want nothing to do with cooking and often have yogurt or a sandwich when what I need is a real meal.

We have a Birthday coming soon...Ms MF is going to be celebrating..so this calls for a virtual Delicious party. Lets all brainstorm on what we can bring to the banquet, shall we?

It is a great and fun escape for me to post in this thread. You all make my day, truly. So thank you for taking the time to read, post, comment and just be here.

Big hugs to all of you.

Glad you stopped by ruff! Come back soon. We have to plan a cooking event for the reunion so I want your input.

Hi gaea nice to see you here.

Thanks for this info, I am going to see if it is on Netflix. There was a discussion with some BF friends on Facebook and one friend did believe that Aspartame was safe and I pointed out that it is made with Ethanol. We are exposed to way too many toxins. I will check this out.

What are you cooking these days?

Okay I admit that I read a lot , even if I don't post. I made a Korean bbq stirfry tonight using beef and noodles. I made a little salad for the side and I will use the sauce for chicken skewers tomorrow.

Dessert was Ben & Jerry's icecream - If I had a million flavors.

Corkey · 03-08-2013, 11:16 PM

We went here http://www.frankieandmay.com/about-us/ And we got some breakfast sausages and some Aioli and some veggies and a goat cheese and red pepper spread.
Small store with lots of local canned and bottled stuffs. It will be a good gift store for the parental carbon units come that time of year.

TheMerryFairy · 03-09-2013, 12:37 AM

I am heading to the farmers market tomorrow so hopefully I will get inspired to make a few nice dishes this week.

There are always vendors set up to serve breakfast, lunch and not to mention the AMAZING strong fair trade coffee to which I am addicted.

I am practically drooling thinking about the locally made sausage being put into a breakfast wrap or the smell of the spicy samosa's waiting to be picked up. One of my favorites by far is the little lebanese cart set up for eat in or take out dining.

The nice thing about trying to promote my services is that the other vendors like to network and barter so sometimes I get a great deal on those little extras I stated above (I call them necessities on market day) for a hot shave.

AHHH you got a bday coming up soon! Wish some of us were closer to help you celebrate! Sometimes I love being alone and doing what I enjoy. I think that could be great for a bday and including buying oneself a gift! If I was to celebrate a bday alone I would probably spend the day at the beach get some ice cream then home to cook up a ribeye steak meal and have some beers. . and maybe a cheese cake.

HOLA !

ahhh the Farmer's Market. I still need to go to a few of these in my area! Maybe as the weather gets warmer and I get settled back down in life. There is also one or two grocery places that cater to fruits and veggies from the farmer so I need to check that out also!

So this got me wondering, what makes great bbq?

What do you all think?

Also what are some of your favorites for side dishes?

Speaking of BBQ one of my fav places is Famous Daves! Check it out! ooh ummm http://www.famousdaves.com/menu

A great bbq for me is moist meat. . and definitely sauce! Love sauce and the spicier the better! They have one called Devil's spit. holy hot damnnn. LOL sooo good! I think I like pork more than beef when it comes to BBQ.

I've also had some pretty good BBQ in KC Missouri.

As for sides I'm always thinking baked beans with bacon in them and coleslaw. French fries and mac and cheese are good too! and corn bread!

imadiva · 03-09-2013, 06:34 PM

Just shared a big Carrot Cake cupcake from Costco with my dog ! OMG it was so good !

TheMerryFairy · 03-10-2013, 12:59 PM

What does everyone have cooking today?

I made a giant breakfast this morning with a piece of french toast, a fruit yogurt parfait, home fries grilled with onion, mushroom and pepper, sausage and one egg over medium.

I also had morning blend tea.

I am trying to decide what I will have for lunch, now.

TheMerryFairy · 03-11-2013, 02:59 PM

What is everyone eating today???

I have eaten very well so far today and I haven't even gotten to the icing on the cake yet!!!!!

For breakfast I stopped at a local coffee shop where I was bought TWO cups of deliciousness to start my day. The first was a chai latte and the second was a hazelnut caramel espresso macchiato. THAT kickstarted my energy, if I wasn't already alert. THEN I was surprised with gifts, homemade baked goods and really cool balloons so I must have been levitating by then!

Work is going to be crazy this week so my boss was determined to surprise me somehow at the shop. I walked into sweet birthday flowers, some pastery on the counter and an everything bagel with light jalapeno cream cheese. Apparently I needed to spice it up today *laughs* My station was decorated simply with a few streamers and a box with a card and bow attached. He is too good to me.

I had a great day filled with laughs, a smile that didn't leave my face, great energy, fun talks and beautiful birthday wishes and it's not even over!!

My boss demanded I take lunch, instead of overworking myself. I was worried because it was so busy of course. He handled that by announcing his birthday party idea and the clients could have cookies and tea or coffee if they wished. It seemed to make the shop more busy (the party blowers didn't help) but calm at the same time.

He ordered subway for all of the staff and after the clients had their goods, we had 30 minutes before anyone showed back up.

My birthday meal for tonight is - deep fried cheese ravioli with marinara to dip, a grape leaf, mixed lettuce and cabbage sald with beef, veggies, apricot and a light honey garlic vinigrette, chicken and chorizo penne with mushrooms, apricot, fig, herbs and a spiced tomato sauce

DESSERT : a homemade tiramisu cake that I am dying to dive into but won't because it looks so good.
