LOL how cute. I wish we has a Trader Joe's here in Austin. Is it kinda like Whole Foods? The prices he shows certainly look better than Whole Foods prices.

Inventor of the Doner Kebab Dies

When I visited Germany in 1996, I hate that stuff like it was my job. Like every day. YUM.

I LOVE Young's Double Chocolate Stout. I never thought I'd care for chocolate beer, but man, that stuff is goooooooood.

Ikea Groceries: Some Assembly Required

Ah, thanks for this! I will definitely have to pick some of this stuff up the next time I'm in Ikea, which now may have to be sooner than later. I've only ever gotten the Swedish meatballs and sauce in the marketplace, but I'll definitely have to look for those onions, sausages, elderflower concentrate and sparkling pear cider. I'll pass on the seafood, I'm really not a fan of seafood. Ooh, and maybe I'll try the coffee, too...

Photo of the Day: Thanksgiving on a Cupcake

hehe I thought those potatoes were rolls, too. That's one of the coolest things I've seen done with a cupcake.

Sweet Potato Fries -- Who Likes These Things?

I have had them twice, and I love them. There's a place here in Austin, Kerbey Lane Cafe, and they make deliciously crispy sweet potatoes fries. They serve them with ranch dressing. NOM NOM NOM.

Dinner Tonight: Seared Steak Tacos with Cactus Paddles

Once I ate a cactus out of my yard. I took all of the spines off, of course, but it made my lips sting, like there were tiny cactus needles sticking them. It tasted okay I guess.

How Old Is Too Old To Trick-or-Treat?

I don't think you're ever too old. I just hate it when I see older kids skulking around with no costumes going door to door for candy when they're not even dressed up. Or when older kids dart out in front of little kids to get to the doors first for candy. I trick or treated until I was 27, but mostly, it was to walk around the neighborhood and see everyone else's costumes. I rarely took any candy after I was like 12, I'd just go along in my costume with my friends. We always all dressed up and went all out on the costumes, so the neighbors always liked seeing what we'd come up with.

In Videos: Weird Al Yankovic's 'Eat It'

I am sort of in love with Weird Al. I think my favorite food themed song is "The Rye or the Kaiser".

What's Your Favorite Halloween Candy?

I love those things, I think they're called Mary Janes, they are in the black or orange wrapping and they have some peanut buttery stuff in the middle. YUMMMM.

Who's Hotter? Young Colicchio vs. Young Bourdain

I think Colicchio was kinda cute. Bourdain looks too much like a teacher I had in high school. Who was a woman. I like my men manly lookin ;)

Deep-Fried Jelly Bean Time at the Texas State Fair

This is sad- I was born and raised in Texas, and I have never gone to the state fair. We lived too far away as a kid, and now although I'm in Austin and it's only 3 hours away, there is no excuse not for me to go. Grrrr to me.
