A Cookie A Day: 'One Sweet Cookie'

Trying to take it easy on myself this year and stick with standards (sugar cookies, buckeyes, meringues), but I know I'll try and get ambitious again.

Lobster Roll Rumble: 18 Lobster Rolls in America

It's probably because I'm still dreaming about the lobster roll I ate yesterday, but I think DC's Tackle Box would make a nice addition to the list.

Should Restaurants Allow Substitutions?

My kneejerk reaction is of course substitutions and changes should be allowed. I have a very serious carrot allergy, so of course I'd like a restaurant to not put something on my plate that could kill me. But I feel like there's a big difference between asking for salad dressing on the side and, say, swapping out all the pre-set sides to your meal.

Cook the Book: 'Food Trucks'

My first (two) cupcake(s) from Curbside Cupcakes in DC. I'm sure how delicious they were had nothing to do with the beer I consumed before them at a St. Patrick's Day event.

Cook the Book: 'Serve Yourself'

Fancy cheese and crackers, maybe a little pate or speck. As much as possible when no one is around to judge me.

Spice Hunting: Old Bay

@sobriquet - Meeee too. When I went to UMD, there were giant containers of Old Bay in the dining halls, so we'd season everything with it -- fries, chicken tenders, chicken sandwiches, eggs, black beans, soups.

United States of Pizza: Maryland

@ap24344: I agree, this is a pretty solid list. That being said, let me give a shout out to the white pizza at Geppetto Restaurant. (Just reading the restaurant's name makes me crave it RIGHT now.)
