Today a friend and I went to Home Goods, which is a store that offers gourmet food/coffee, furniture, and bath goods for discount prices. Think Marshall’s, Ross or TJ Maxx, but without the clothes. I love this place, because it’s easy to access quaint adorable tea pots, funky, vintage “distressed” mirrors and desks, and features the best flavored coffees available- [...]

TTSPTip: Play With Your Food! (Faking Your Way Into Baking)
Posted by: thetalkingspoon on: October 29, 2011
Fake your way into baking by using semi homemade recipes and jazzing it up! Now, I can say I have a much stronger sense that certain ingredients like vanilla can enhance flavors, but nutmeg and cinnamon can be paired up with certain fruits to round it out or add depth, and make cakes and other baked good from scratch. The same goes for non baking food. Play with your food, and you’ll have a better sense of how seasonings work, and more confidence!

Must Try Junk Food: Raspberry Cheesecake Cookies
Posted by: thetalkingspoon on: May 2, 2011
For starters, the cookie is a whopping $.50, the perfect amount of money to try it, and if it doesn’t taste good, you didn’t go broke in being adventurous. (I find that to be a plus. Anyone else with me, here?) Biting into it, one will notice the chewy texture, and the golden buttery taste of the cookie, and then boom

Opa! My First Greek Yogurt! (Then my second one)+ A recipe!
Posted by: thetalkingspoon on: March 18, 2011
Greek yogurt was pretty good It’s thick, creamy, chock full of protein (12 grams!) and does vary from your typical very sweet yogurts out there. It also taste a tad bit more natural than say some other yogurts that are just full of sugar. Plus, it’s so thick, I turned my spoon over and the yogurt didn’t even budge. COOL!!
Vanilla Cupcake Goldfish Grahams:Because Sprinkles Always =Cupcakes (Even if you can’t taste it)
Posted by: thetalkingspoon on: March 11, 2011
I expected this to not taste that much like a vanilla cupcake considering it has a graham cracker base. Upon opening the bag, you’ll notice that there are sprinkles on your goldfish grahams to imply that is it indeed a cupcake. (Nothing spells a cupcake like sprinkles, and don’t you forget it 
) With the first bite, I was only able to taste a graham cracker and maybe a bit more butter
Strawberry Shortcake for Breakfast? Sorta!
Posted by: thetalkingspoon on: March 1, 2011
I figured toasted almond was more easy to imagine taste wise and wasn’t as interesting compared to the pink prettiness of the Strawberry Shortcake. I picked it up, excited about what newness I’d experience upon tasting it. And I sniffed it a little. OH goodness! It was heavenly! So juicy, sweet and flirty to my nostrils! SOLD!
