Fun with Food!



Hi, Bloggies! I thought you all might like to know about a couple of things that have made their way into my orbit...Who says you can't play with your food?

Think veggies are boring? Maybe they used to be, but here's a fun way to make them objects of creativity! Learning ZoneXpress has come out with a line of products called Foodscapes––including posters, stickers, and postcards––that show fruits and veggies reimagined as fun characters. Visit www.learningzonexpress.com



Put a new spin on deserts...and use a jar!! Check out the new cookbook, Desserts in Jars: 50 Sweet Treats That Shine, by Shaina Olmanson. This colorful, gorgeous book gives great, yummy recipes for desserts that can be given as gifts, taken to dinner parties, or simply to add some interest to your week! The recipes are easy, single-serving adaptations of classics, as well as a few new ones that the ingenious author decided to pack into jars! Huge flavor in a small package...Try your hand at petite apple pies and elegant pains au chocolat, Peanut Butter and Jelly Parfaits, Pull-Apart Cinnamon Breads, and Basil-Strawberry Lemonade Granitas. There are even decoration tips and ideas and a section of "Mixes for Giving." Visit Olmanson's blog at foodformyfamily.com
