Black and Tan Brownies
For the August Secret Recipe Club, we were assigned Pass The Sushi. Kita’s blog is simply adorable. We love her logo with her cartoonized self and of course, her red cupcake. Miss Yunks had a very hard time deciding which recipe to make. So many made my mouth water and Kita’s photography helped bring her [...]

A Proper Brunch
This is the way brunch should be — cheap and boozy without sacrificing the quality of the food. On her recent trip to San Diego, A-Tooch encountered an exemplary brunch location she had to share. I wasn’t too thrilled for the hungover, wake-up-and-pack-your-stuff hotel exit that morning so you had better believe boozy brunch wasn’t [...]

Tart Flambee, the new version
It’s always a good idea to have an extra ball of pizza dough in the freezer for when the mood strikes you. TFAW love to make our own inventive pizzas. I am a big fan of the Tart Flambee at Cinema Cafe in NYC — prepared in the traditional way with crème fraîche, leeks and [...]

Brunching at OM in Harvard Square
Boston Brunchers‘ first August brunch was at OM in Harvard Square. This summer has been crazy busy and I’ve loved it, but I’ve felt a little disconnected from the Boston blogger world and was happy to have the opportunity to connect with some fellow bloggers over brunch. I was also happy that this brunch was [...]

A-Tooch Travels: San Diego and Burbank, California
Last week, A-Tooch was in California for the BlogHer ’11 conference. Aside from eating everything in sight on the expo floor (ahem, thanks Hillshire Farm, Jimmy Dean and Dove Ice Cream), there were also some top-notch dining spots you need to know about. San Diego is basically utopia and the fact that there is yummy [...]
Mystic Pizza
A few weekends ago, Miss Yunks and BF visited BF’s sister and husband in Connecticut. Because they live close to Mystic, CT, and because I hadn’t been there in about 12 years, we walked around the little town Sunday morning to do some exploring after brunch. We popped into some cute shops, enjoyed some ice [...]
